Creating text in a circle path
When I try to create text in a circle facing the camera, each character faces the camera and the text does not wrap around smoothly with the edges meeting each other. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?
Flush your cache
delete users\(username)\library\preferences\com.adobe.mediabrowser.plist
Reset your preferences.
Cmd-Opt-Ctrl-Shift when restarting AI on a Mac or Alt-Crtl-Shift on a PC to reset to the defaults.
Temporarily Rename This Folder (incase one of your other preferences is corrupted)

Create text inside a path or shape in Photoshop CS6?
Is there a new way to fill a shape or path with text in CS6.
When I create the path I can put my text tool "over" the path & my cursor switches to a curved line through the cursor, but when I place the cursor "inside" the path it just goes back to regular cursor & if I click inside it just starts a new (regular) text layer.
In older versions as soon as I placed my text cursor inside the path it would switch to the text cursor inside parenthesis. And thus type inside the path. That doesn't happen anymore.
Is there a new way to do this?

Just figured it out. You apparently have to create a "shape" layer first.
That's strange because I don't find it necessary to create a Shape layer in CS6, and I don't think JJ needs to create a Shape.
I can create a closed path, Work Path for example, position Type Tool pointer inside path to see the dotted circle pointer, click on canvas then start typing. -
I have a shape that I have drawn
Everytime I try to copy and paste text into the shape I get the message that I I must click on a non-compound non masked path to create text inside path.
Can anyone help?maralena,
As I said in the meeting, it should work, so I believe there may be corruption of preferences.
You may Cmd+Option+Shift during startup, or Move the folder with Illy closed; this is reversible.
If neither helps, you may have a look at the Other options, especially item 7. -
How do i form text in a circle?
How do I form texdt in a circle using Illustrator CS4?
Beverly,
As I (mis)understand it:
1) Create a circle;
2) With the Path Type Tool Click where you want the text to start, or have its centre, or end, depending on the Paragraph style, and just start typing.
If you wish to have the text symmetrically at the top, use Paragraph>Align Center and click the top Anchor Point. Then the text will spread symmetrically to both sides as you type.
Basically, the text is on top of the circle. You may adjust that in the Character palette, using Baseline Shift. You may flip the text opposite, or drag the text round the circle, by dragging at the I beam. -
Placing text on a circlular path - help please!
I am trying to create a circle path and then place some text on it.
Easy to do in PhotoShop - Eliptical path tool, with the shift down, gives
you a nice circular path, then click on the top center with the type tool and
type away.
But, if you try executing the code generated by the Script Listener you get
a path that is incomplete, and the text is invisible. It is there (I think) because
the layer name is changed to the text string that was typed, but you can't see it.
Changing its color, size, font, etc. will still not show it.
I am hoping someone has a sample script that is a little shorter and more
understandable than what Script Listner creates - 1300+ lines long - that I can
modify with my text, text color, font, and pathitem points to achieve this.
I have also tried duplicating and modifying a text layer with the circle/text already in it.
For some reason, I can't get to the SubPathInfo; where EntireSubPath
(the array that needs to be modified) supposedly is. This approach would
be fine too...
I am using CS3 / Visual Basic
thank you very much! I have already missed my deadline on this and really
appreciate any ideas or tips anyone can give me!

Used of Sap text variable with replacement path in Bo designer
Dear experts,
I created a univers based on a SAp BW query. In this query I used a text variable in order to get dynamic header columns.
The text variable is done by using "replacement path" that is the text is derived automatically from the user input triggered by a sap bw variable.
example :
the query contains a restricted key figure which shows net values for a selected year based on variable PYEAR.
The name of this restricted keyfigure is &ZYEAR& where ZYEAR is the text variable with replacement path from the variable PYEAR.
When generated the univers based on this query I get component &YEAR&.
When I use this unvers in WebI my result containts header with &YEAR& althougth I selected for example the year 2006.
According to several how to and white papers on SDN , it seems that text variables with replacement path are supported. So I am disapointed by this result.
Can you give me advise to get a rigth result ?
thanks a lot
Olivier DoubroffHi Rishit,
I am trying to achieve the same as you, but it seems like text variables in restricted key figures do not work. I am using BO XI3.1 SP3 and SAP BW 7.01 SP6.
A work-around for me has been to use the "user response" function in webi to create a webi variable that holds the dynamic text title. If the user inputs Jan 2010, I change the input to a date using the "user response" and "ToDate" functions in the webi variable editor. After changing the input to a date I use the RelativeDate to extract 1 month (e.g. 25 days) from the user input. Then I have both Jan 2010 and Dec 2010 as webi variables to use as headers for my restricted key figures.
The formulas can easily become a little long, but by tweaking the user response string, you should be able to get dynamic headings by using webi functionality. But be aware that you need one webi variable for each dynamic heading if you use this method.
Let me know if it works or if I can help more:-)
Best regards,

Text Variable with Replacement Path
Hi,
I want to create a report which will show me 5 years of data. I have used a variable for Fiscal year which will be given by the user. Now I created a 5 key figures with offset to show the 5 years of data.
I used a text variable with replacement path based on Fiscal Year, to display the year in the column heading. But I am only able to get the correct year in the first column. Rest of the column is showing me the same heading. Actually the offset is not working for the text variable.
Can anybody let me know how could we achiev the column heading for the columns with offset.
ThanksPrashanth,
I have used a replacement variable in the exact situation. Instead of years, I have different months. I have used this variable on 0CALMONTH. I also have two more keyfigures where CALMONTH is offset by -12 and +1.
This variable works perfectly for me as expected.
Did you check the data to make sure that your offset is working? This is was I did for Offsetting and i am sure you have done the same thing.
Right click on the variable, "restrict". A window opens with the values. With the variable selected in the right side, right click "Specify Variable Offsets". If the replacement variable is built on this infoObject, it should work.
Hope it helps. Let me know if you still can not find a solution. -

Thanks & Regards,Hi,
There is a scenario:
One has to show, a Period like May 2008 for a report. i.e the report which u r showing is common for May 2008. So u create a text variable on this Fiscal Year Period. When u do this, the Text appears on the Top of the report. So later, whenever u execute a report for a particular month, u get that Header as Jue, July etc etc.
Its just a header. Text Variable promts u to display the Header with our own uploaded Desire Data.
Steps.
1) Edit your query
2) Right click 'keyfigures' or other structure, choose 'new selection',
3) beside description there is 'variable' button, click and then choose 'new', a variable screen will come out, type in your variable name, description, choose 'replacement path' for processing by. click 'next'.

How can I make my text in a circle?
I am designing some new biz cards, and I saw some that were a circle and SUPER cute. I'd like to create my own.
How do I create my text in a circle? I'd like to have some info in the middle of the circle, and some actually bending around the circle.
I am of course using Pages.

AimeePages doesn't have any built-in feature for circular text.
Either you start with Art Text 2, a separate application or you do it manually. Here is how http://i-work-in-pages.blogspot.com/2010/03/curving-text-in-pages-suggestion.htm l -
Email a created text file by the click of a button
Hi
What I am trying to do it that: In the Front Panels, All the data is collected via String Control and other Control, then when a press saved, a text file is created and stored in the path that I specified.
It is possible in LabView to using a Button called 'Email Created File' to then e-mail that file as an attachment.
What VIs or example does such a thing?
P.S. I'm deploying it to a PDA.

can anyone tell, how to create text table in abap.
Hi,
Follow this procedure
To create a text table for a table ZABC,
1. you have to create a ZABCT table with the field = all the primary fields of table ZABC + SPRSL type SPRAS + Text field.
2. Every other field except the text field should be primary key fields.
3. Maintain a foreign key relationship between ZABC and ZABCT over the field required field (in TSTCT the required field is TCODE).
4. Activate the table.
5. Now you should be able to traverse to the text table ZABCT from ZABC (menu path: Goto->Text Table)
Hope this will help.

Can't create text with PHP using imagettftext [SOLVED]
I think that after the upgrade of PHP to the modular one I can't create text using TTF fonts. Before I file a bug report could someone confirm if it works or not for them? I might just have screwed something in my box.
This code should create a text image and display it in the browser (it assumes you have DejaVu fonts in the default directory):
<?php
// Set the content-type
header("Content-type: image/png");
// Create the image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 30);
// Create some colors
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$grey = imagecolorallocate($im, 128, 128, 128);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 399, 29, $white);
// The text to draw
$text = 'Testing...';
// Replace path by your own font path
$font = '/usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSans.ttf';
// Add some shadow to the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 11, 21, $grey, $font, $text);
// Add the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $black, $font, $text);
// Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
Could someone with an up to date php with GD enabled tell me if it works or him/her?
Thanks.
EDIT: Ok, I solved it. The error reporting is turned off by default now, so I was not getting any error. After turning it on I found out it was related to the open_basedir directive being enabled now in php.ini. Turning it off allowed me to access the TTF for drawing text.
Last edited by Bogart (2007-11-01 00:43:33)Aha! I figured it out. I used File...Open As to open it as a Camera RAW file. In the ACR editor, it was showing as 16-bit depth. Changed it to 8-bit and saved it. Now the Text tool works!

One point circle path with pen tool
I have heard or people drawing a circle path with one point and dragging or something like this. I would really like to be able to do this! Is this possible?
Absolutely just hold down the shift key while dragging one of the ellipse tools. Add the Alt|CMD key then circle center will be where you start dragging from. Marque ellipse tool or ellipse tool. Selection can be turned into path. But the Ellipse tool is better for its a vector tool. Can create shapes layers, Paths and fill pixels... Pen Tool circle is hard but you can use the pen tool to edit the circle path created with the ellipse tool.
