Is it possible to arch words in eCAL?
I watched a tutorial arching with the text to path tool in SCAL, but I don't see that option in eCAL.
Thanks

Look on your Tools bar at the left of the screen. Choose the little down arrow. There is a feature called "Type on Path". Have your shape on the mat first, then start with the text. Go to Object - Break Apart and then delete the shape. Then merge the letters again if needed. I believe this is what you are asking.

Thanks! I guess I didn't put the shape down first. Got it!

Sandy - I never knew you could do that!!!
Thanks for the tip. I don't work in SCAL; I usually use Inkscape. Maybe I need to play in SCAL a little more.
