On the Right Path

Here's how easy it is (using Adobe Fireworks) to make your text follow the path you want ! You'll need a line of text and a simple path for the text to be attached to.

It's as easy as this: Select the path and the text and hit CTRL+SHIFT+Y. When you do this, you'll see the path vanish and the text will move to the position where the line was. Actually, the line (your path) is still there. It's simply no longer a visible line. You can still manipulate the vector line and you can still edit the text.

If you're the type who prefers to use the menu's to get to the functions you want, you'll find this one resides on the TEXT menu. As done before, select your text and your vector line, then click Text>Attach To Path as shown below!



I take requests, so if you're trying to figure out how to make something work, feel free to request it here!

Enjoy!
