Inkscape | Curve Text. Text on Path.

Steps:

1. Type some text using the Text Tool

2. Use Bezier / Path tool to draw a line under the text

3. Select both the text and the path/line by holding SHIFT while left clicking each

4. On the top menu bar, go to Text, Put on Path.

5. Select 'Edit Paths by Nodes' tool (N), and left click and hold the path line to bend it.

6. Make the path line invisible by setting its stroke to transparent, in Fill and Stroke settings or using the color selection bar along the bottom (hold SHIFT while clicking the while square with a red line in the bottom left corner to set the stroke to transparent)

Hey Ryndon, I've just discovered your videos and they are awesome. I'm watching the Gimp series. I was wondering if there's a way to support the channel, like patreon or something like that?

Hi, why I did all the steps, however when take actioin step "5. Select 'Edit Paths by Nodes' tool (N), and left click and hold the path line to bend it." it doesn't work? What am i missing?

[fireofenergy]

Thanks, but it doesn't stick. There's no line after clicking select. Therefore, no selecting both...
