Text along path problem

[HLJ]

Hi all,

 

I'm just trying to get some text to flow along a curve with the Text Along Path command. I keep getting an error saying "only one path object and one text object are allowed in text along path" when I'm only selecting one item of text and one polyline. See below:

 

 

 

Am I missing something? Maybe this only works with certain kinds of path?? I've tried it with a single line and a different text object and it did the same thing.

 

Thanks!

Not much help here.  I just tried it in VW2023 and it works fine.

 

In VW2022, I don't get your error message, but the created Text Along Path is invisible.  VW2022SP4.

 

What happens if you try in a new blank file after restarting VW?
