![]() Actually, I just tried it again with the "Does Not Work" file that I uploaded and the text when put on path went where it would be expected to go so I have no clue what is driving or causing this oddity to occur. The " transform matrix " is way above my head, if anything I mirrored the text to try to place it on the bottom inside of the ellipse \ circle, in that file for whatever reason it seems once I have this issue with text put on a path I have this unknown \ random insertion \ anchor point never goes away so it drives me plum nuts. You definitely are seeing what I am referring too, I just do not know how or what is causing the text when put on path to have the weird insertion point \ anchor point (I'm struggling for the proper description of the attachment location when text is put on a path of a circle, for a circle I assume it should be the circles center point). But maybe there's some info that will be helpful? I don't know if I answered your question or not, since I'm not sure how your text got separated from the ellipse. The text can't be snapped relative to its anchor anymore, because it no longer has an anchor. But I just noticed that once the text is placed on a path, the text anchor disappears. I never noticed or thought about this before. The frontwards text moves exactly as the ellipse moves - just at a distance away. That's probably being caused by the transform matrix. When I move the ellipse around, I can see that the backwards text seems to have a mind of it's own. But it could have something to do with the odd placement.īut there is no transform attribute of any kind on the frontwards text. ![]() So I don't know how it might have gotten there, or if it has anything to do with the odd placement. ![]() I don't know much about transform matrices, except that I can see them in the XML Editor. The text which is backwards, it has a transform matrix, which might account for it's odd placement. I can't see any reason for the frontwards text not to be on the circle. Since it looks like you deleted everything else out of the file, it could be that you deleted whatever might have been causing this problem. In your "does not work" file, I'm able to place text on your same circle, and it works properly. ![]() I just don't know if you moved it away for some reason? Are you saying that when you clicked Put on Path, the text was placed where it is, and not on the circle? Because it's possible to grab the text and move it away from the circle. I see that the 2 text items are not on the circle (ellipse). I'm not sure if I see the problem that you're talking about, but I might. Seems as if I have run across the solution sometime back but his time when it has re-emerged I am unable to remember or find the solution again.Īttached is 2 files, one that the Text path is properly set to the center of the ellipse or circle and the other where the text center \ anchor point seems to have randomly been assigned or has been incorrectly set. I expect to find out that it is something that I am doing wrong and just do not know it in a specific file like some type of hidden object snap or unknowing changing the circle or arc's rotation point. I cannot just start over with a new file. Since the working drawing has lots of other work that has been done in it. If for example, I create a new file, draw a circle or ellipse, add text and put on path, the text anchor point is the center of the arc or circle, but if done in a working file, the text anchor point is not even near the arc or circle center. There is something screwy going on and it appears to be within the file I am working on.
