Align text on path

Hello

Is there a way I can align a paragraph of text on a vector path.

There are plenty of tutorials online that will show you how to attach text to a path, but this isn't quite what I hope to achieve.

I have attached a picture showing what I do now, his line by line by aligning the spacing between the letters to have the text followed a path.

In paragraph after paragraph, this can often take me AGES!

I appreciate any guidance.

Kind regards

Simply create a vector path of what you would like the text to search for, then click on this path to create a text box. Then type.

  • control file path of strength left in fact justify text on path

    I often find that the paths of files displayed in the file path controls are too long and gets truncated. Problem is that the right side of the lane becomes truncated and one may say is more this file was not selected.

    I'd rather largely aligned left the path so that the left side of the path is truncated and the name of the file is visible.

    I bet that there is no reasonable way to do it. Please prove me wrong.

  • How to align text

    something that I always found it frustrating is not able to align text properly without first creating outlines. Here's what I mean, black 0 is always text and is aligned to the center circle, however he is biased, the Red 0 is described and properly aligned at the Center. any way around this?

    Hi Dr. Tyrell,

    You must use a contour also direct Effect

    Select the text, then go to Effects-> Path-> outline object

    and in editing-> preferences-> general use Preview limits lights

    Now the Bounding Box fits on the text and you will be able to align the text perfectly.

  • Problems Photoshop CS6 text and paths

    Hello, I can't find an answer to this.

    I am unfortunately quite new to photoshop and im trying to create a logo, perhaps I should have used illustrator instead, but my problem is the following:

    I created a path, a circle and were able to put text around it. but now, when I try to change my other text on other layers, the text tool ALWAYS comes back to that path on the layer that has the text on the circular trail and I can't select text on other layers.

    How am I supposed to select other layers/text/deselect text on path?

    Thank you

    You double click (red arrow) to change the type?

    When you do the line is highlighted as shown in the bottom example.

    In addition, if you are not accurate by clicking on a layer and chose the tool move with automatic selection in the options bar, you can choose the wrong layer by mistake.

  • best way to align text in the fw

    What is the best way to align text in Fireworks?  I tried to use the Alignment tab, but it does not work too good for me.  is there a better way to do it?

    To align text objects vertically to each other, try selecting them, and then selecting "Align top edge", with "from Web" off. (I don't know why, but "Center vertical alignment" and "align bottom" both seem to lead to imbalances.) Pretty weird behaviour, in fact). If this does not work, then try using leaders and guides, as described in my first answer.

    Spread text objects, try the first and the last objects ('Home' and 'Contact') regarding their positioning slices, and then select all text objects and choose "distribute horizontal center" to evenly space items remaining in-between (with 'to Web"off). If this does not work, then just eyeball it: use the arrows to adjust the level of each text object position until it looks centered.

    This is a perfect example of why Fireworks must support the selection of an object 'key '. If that were the case, I'll tell you to select each slice individually, and text object to choose the slice as a "key object" and then align horizontal and vertical centers. Unfortunately, this is not an option here.

    Seriously, however, please take the time to be accurate during the validation of future issues. If all goes well, I have given you a lot of ideas and leads on how to solve this problem.

  • Spaces on the right aligned text

    Our users are trying to use spaces like text aligned to right fill but it does not work.

    I did a test with the same text in two supports various good text aligned, the second container contains the text that was in the first container as well as several nonbreaking spaces at the end.  When I debug the results of StringTextLineFactory.createTextLines the widths of the two lines of text are the same.

    It seems as if it were a question of FTES since FTE has no concept of right-aligned text, I could see it just remove extra spaces at the end of the text, but that's just a guess.

    It also looks that RichEditableText does the same thing.  In this video I go "asdf" then a bunch of places and it's not until I get another character that the blanks are recognized. http://screencast.com/t/NGMzZmNk

    You're right - spaces at the end of a line are ignored for the most part. This is consistent with most of the drivers of text (TextField, InDesign, Word). Why not use paragraphEndIndent?

  • Is there a quick and easy ways to precisely align text on a circular path?

    I create a model of roller coaster of drinks and I have to make sure that the text moves around the outside edge of the coaster is properly spaced, symmetrical and well aligned. Are there tools that I can use to simplify this process, because at the moment I use the very long and very imprecise method of using the SPACEBAR and counting the spaces between words and turning arc text manually. There must be an automatic method that is much more accurate?

    Thank you very much. TW

    Another method: start by placing a space between each of the sentences. Use the method justified that Peter suggested.

    Then replace the spaces between sentences with a hunting space (Type > Insert space > Flush space).

    To the passage of the alignment with the selection tool. Check that the proxy of transformation is set to centered. Use the rotation tool and turn until the text that you want at the top of the circle.

  • Align the tool path Rectangle frame on the master page

    I have the Master Page I place a rectangular frame tool.

    Then I copy and paste in a path logo.

    This right click > editing > Center.

    It would be the finished master.

    Then select a new page apply the master.

    I want then to scale/resize the rectangular frame, so using the selection tool, press Command SHIFT in, I click on the frame and the scale. Path Logo then is not automatically aligned to the center of this area.

    Is this possible?

    I've added a screen recording here

    Thank you very much

    Matt

    If I want to Center a logo on a page or somewhere else, I'm going a different path.

    1. Draw a text frame
    2. Place the logo (I use PDF/X-4 files or HAVE) on the page
    3. I drag the widget for reinforcement anchored in the text block.
    4. I apply a style object for the logo.
    5. In the object style I have configured the parameters of anchored frame that allows me to global, readjust the position of the logo by the evolution of the style object (or application of a different object style).
  • How to make a labelfield right aligned text

    I want to make my label text aligned to right field in then the screen

    LabelField content = new LabelField(description,LabelField.FOCUSABLE|USE_ALL_WIDTH|FIELD_RIGHT)
    

    This labelfield, I add to an optimization of internal resources

    VerticalFieldManager vfm = new VerticalFieldManager (
                    VerticalFieldManager .VERTICAL_SCROLL
                            | VerticalFieldManager .FOCUSABLE) {
                protected void sublayout(int width, int height) {
    
                    super.sublayout(Display.getWidth() - 20, height);
                    setExtent(Display.getWidth() - 20, 33);
                }
            };
    

    This optimization of internal resources, I add to main vfm called external resources management and in defining its position

    layoutChild(vfm, maxWidth, maxHeight);
                        setPositionChild(vfm,290, 123);
    

    My screen is 320 x 240

    But the text goes out of the screen. Help, please

    Forget all the positioning in the Manager and try this:

    Content LabelField = new LabelField (description, LabelField.FOCUSABLE |) DRAWSTYLE. (RIGHT);

    Announcing this to a VerticalFieldManager or directly to your screen and I think this should work for you.

    If this is not the case, let know us and we can look at the positioning of the field.

    As a side note, it seems doubtful:

    protected void sublayout (int width, int height) {}
    Super.sublayout (Display.GetWidth () - 20, height);
    setExtent (Display.getWidth () - 20: 33);
    }

    Yes you can. There is a setTextFormatForState() method that can help you with that. more details can be found here:
