Attaching text to a path in Fireworks MX

By Blue_Chi | Fireworks MX | Beginner

 

You can make your text take the shape of any path in Fireworks MX, here is how.

1- Create your text using the Text tool.

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.

You can explore other options as well from the Orientation settings as well, these are worth checking.
