DONIKKL Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Hi, is there any possibility in Affinity Photo to bend a text? Or even "text on a path"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DONIKKL Posted March 13, 2019 Author Share Posted March 13, 2019 Please tell me how. I've been trying for hours but the text arrow doesn't turn into a little wave after touching the circle I created. In the forum someone uploaded the template attached to this post but I don't have a clue how to build "text on a path" or to bend a text. Using the mesh warp tool always distorts the text. textonapath.afphoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HVDB Photography Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Or you could try Equations ..

John Rostron Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I did post an example of using Equations to warp text and promised to provide a macro to do this. As far as I can see, I never did post a macro (just a message to say that I was having problems). I will give it another go, now that I have had more experience with this and post it under Resources, with a message here giving the link.
