How do I get back my lost path or frame?

[Chris P. Bacon]

While using envelope distort, I have lost the initial frame of the path with which I built my top subheading, using make with top object, the top object was the path.

But now the path is gone.

How do I get it back?

You can Release the envelope.

Then you need to apply Object > Path > Offset path with a value of 0 to the mesh object.

Oh I see, I could add a mesh with edit envelope, and get back shape.

Thanks.
