Text Warp in Inkscape

[mikemcknight]

I actually had two computers on while doing this procedure. On one I had Inkscape open and was performing the work. The other had your video playing, and I was pausing at each instruction so I perform the instruction on Inkscape exactly as you instructed. I don't know how I could have done it wrong. In fact I did it multiple times. But I will try it again. The funny thing is that I got the same response and message even after I deleted Inkscape and reinstalled it. By the way, the bezier envelope tool does show in extensions, modify path. Thanks for your response. I'll let you know if it works when I try it again.

Thank you for a clear, and descriptive explanation. To many other "how to's" got too fast and just click around ...no way to follow.
Great job!

you have to be patient to figure this out, folks... she explains EVERYTHING out. But is you decide NOT to watch this video from front to back without skipping around to different parts, you will not miss key points that she addresses. It wasn't working for me either, because that's exactly what i was doing. I then watched to whole video and referenced he blog as well. downloaded both the extension and the template. its all laid out. just be patient guys... you're learning.

Glad I'm still using .92 Inkscape, this method worked great, thank you !

I'm such a newbie but I appreciate your easy to understand instructions.

Gotten enough of this! ! ! Went on subsequently and downloaded Photoscape X (free version) for Windows 10 without having to go thru the steep learning curve. On Photoscape X, you can arch, arc, bulge and more.

Danielle, try selecting the rectangle, then choosing the node edit tool (2nd arrow down) instead of double clicking. That might work better for you.

I have tried this multiple times, and it still will not work. At first I thought I had placed the download of the bezier extensions in the wrong place. I completely removed Inkscape, reloaded it, reloaded the download from your page, and put them in the extension area. Still no help. It will not work. It says: "Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The script did not return an error, but this may indicate the results will not be as expected". The text remains where I placed it and does not move at all. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you! I have been trying to recreate the THRASHER logo on paint.net but could not find any tools or plugins that recreate the effect so I decided to look into inkscape and this works fine!

Do you have any suggestions for those of us using the Inkscape 1.0?

Thank you for this tutorial! It is explained well and to the point. I've had to watch it a few times between jobs to make sure I'm doing it correctly, hopedfully this time it sticks!

[feralhousecat]

Thank you for this tip, it exactly showed me how to address a problem I was having with text in a logo.

[chansofancy]

It took me a few times trial and error (on my part) but awesome tutorial. It worked for me!

[thenar]

As usual, a well presented concept. Thank you.

I know this is an older version of inkscape, I tried this with a newer version and there is no bezier envelope only envelope. Can you help me with this !! Thank You

[dianaesco]

Thank you so much for all this knowledge.I have tried following step by step instructions to add the extensions but have been unsuccessful.  Cant figure out what I'm doing wrong.

[LoriAnneBrown]

since there is no longer a "bezier envelope" option in the current version, how do you do this today?

[SARAH-odfz]

OMG I love this tutorial AND THANK YOU So very much for the explanation. I have fairly newer Mac and was able to get it with using the feature GO TO menu!! You're amazing!!

[rescuefurbabies]

Thank you so much! After I figured out the download and restarted it worked like a charm!

[melissaraebaker]

So helpful! This process worked exactly as described without any issue. Thank you for sharing!
