2- Now using the Vector Path tool, draw the shape that you want your text to look like. The colour and the stroke do not matter, what matters is the shape. |

3- Now select both objects by either pressing Ctrl+A or using the arrow Pointer tool to select both shapes. |
|
4- You can now either press Ctrl+Shift+Y or go under Text and choose Attach to Path and you should get something like that. |
