Question about text

Post by sargumphigaus »

I've been hamstrung out of left field by an unexplained shift in the text function. The way I've BEEN using it involved text incorporated into the very layer so that I could manipulate and format it more accordingly, when suddenly, as if on a whim of the software, it decides to start creating a brand new layer out of the text, which offers me no manipulation abilities whatsoever. This is a time sensitive project I'm working on and I'm sure this is a very simple fix, I would appreciate some insight. Thanks.

When creating a new text, you must uncheck "create text layer". That will create a normal vector layer with shapes,
If you didn't, there's no solution, I'm sorry.

PD: I'm just kidding, you only need to right click the text layer and there will appear the option "convert to vector".

You're okay in my book. You're also a very talented individual and have my top notch degree of respect.
