Good day to all,

This may be an easy question, or maybe I just havent seen it yet.

I want to have a circular text box to write in, I want the words to stop and start a new sentence when it reaches the sides of the circle.. but not vertical writing or path writing.

I hope someone has an idea for me! I know this is possible in indesign, but I dont have that anymore.

Thank you in advance!

Waldo

    Ged has it covered, but look for this cursor inside the Shape

    Note, you don't need the shape to be visible

    You can turn off both fill and stroke, and it will still work as a placeholder.

      @grahamb15958644  If you mean "Lorem Ipsum.....etc", it is not Latin but just false text which does not have a meaning. It is designed to be a placeholder until you overwrite it with genuine text. If you prefer, you can turn it off in Preferences > Type by unchecking "Fill New Type Layers with Placeholder Text"
