In this lesson you will

• create a text shape
• associate a text shape with a path

Tip

Si un docker no es visible, puede dirigirse a Settings -> Dockers menu, o hacer click derecho en el título de otro contenedor y marcarlo para que sea visible.

Primer paso deformando texto

To add an artistic text shape, go to the Add shape docker, click on the Artistic Text icon, and drag it to the canvas.

Luego de agregar una forma, tal vez quiera modificar el texto y mostrar algo más interesante. Para conseguirlo, necesitará activar artistic text shape tool, haciendo doble click en la nueva forma creada, o seleccionando en la barra de herramientas. Entonces podrá cambiar el texto a algo como esto.

Since you want a cool text, you will need to change the font. This is done by changing the properties in the shape properties docker, where you can change font, the style, and also the Offset which will be used to control the position of the text on a path shape.

After changing the font to "Steve", the size to 30pt, and setting bold, you can have the following shape in your canvas:

Path follower

This is still a very straight, flat text. Now we want a curvy text. To do this, we will need to create a path, for instance, using the Freehand Path Drawing Tool .

You should have something like this:

To associate the text with the curve, you need to activate the artistic text tool by double clicking on the text, or selecting .

Then, if you move the mouse on top of the curve you will see the cursor changing to a hand, you will need to doubleclick on the curve to attach the path. Using the offset in the Shape properties docker, you can adjust the text to get the following result:

You can detach the path by clicking on . You can translate, rotate and edit the text. If you change the curve, then the text will be updated.
