FAQs
Issue 1: What categories of transform effects are available?
- Solution: Transform effects are mainly divided into two categories: Follow Path (text aligns along paths like circles, arcs, and waves) and Warp (text warps, bulges, or shrinks horizontally or vertically). Each category offers various preset styles.
Issue 2: How do I make text align in a circle?
- Solution: Select the Circle style under Follow Path, and the text will align along a circular path. You can drag the control point to adjust the size of the circle and the position of the text on it. If the text is too long, you may need to adjust the font size to ensure it displays completely.
Issue 3: What should I do if the text is cut off after applying a transform effect?
- Solution: Transform effects change the alignment path of the text, which may cause some text to exceed the text box boundaries. We recommend increasing the size of the text box or reducing the font size to ensure all text displays completely along the transform path.
Notes
- Transform effects are mainly used for titles and decorative text, and are not suitable for body text formatting.
- The transformed text can still be edited. The effect will automatically update after you modify the content.
- Text that is too long may not display completely on complex transform paths. Pay attention to controlling the text length.
