Type on a path tool!

New Here ,
Aug 12, 2017 Aug 12, 2017

Hi,

I'm creating a new poster where all the copy follows a diagonal basegrid (see image attached for reference).

Due to the size of the title, this would be split in 3 or 4 lines and I wondered if there is a way to allow the full copy to follows the same path tool. At the moment, when I select the + for the copy, this is placed on a box text and doesn't follow the path.Screen Shot 2017-08-12 at 14.25.46.png

Thanks,

  1. Start by drawing a series of diagonal lines.
  2. Convert each line to a 'Type on a Path' line, by clicking on the line with the Type on a Path tool.
