Re: [Gimp-user] 2.8.22 is wacky



*Text ALONG path url* = https://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-tool-text.html
scroll down.
Scroll down there is also an image demonstrating it's position in the Layer
menu selection
There is an image here, not to say it will show up in the mail list =
"Figure 13.177. The Text to Path command..."

Text along Path

This option is enabled only if a path
<https://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-using-paths.html> exists. When your text
is created, then create or import a path and make it active. If you create
your path before the text, the path becomes invisible and you have to make
it visible in the Path Dialog.

This command is also available from the “Layer” menu:

*Figure 13.177.  The Text to Path command among text commands in the Layer
menu*
[image: The Text to Path command among text commands in the Layer menu]

This group of options appears only if a layer text exists.

To answer the question how I select the move tool... 2 ways =
1. click the icon for the move tool in toolbox
2. do the keyboard shortcut
both opened the draw path tool

Sure that it is actually the Path tool, and not the Move tool in move
Path mode?

Obviously (from this thread) there is an align to path tool (even shown
in
the manual)

Align to path? Not sure if I'm following... can you provide the URL of
its page in the user manual?


P.S. as you've now got 2.6.12 again, can you check if you had remebered
the following correctly?

you could *choose the baseline for the path*, even run it along a circle
Then you could save or export the results cleanly as xcf or other formats
