TL Text Along Curve

Todor Latev

Interactively positions text characters along lines, polylines, splines, circles, arcs, and ellipses.

Free

This app will read the contents of a user-selected MText object and interactively place individual characters along a user-selected curved object.

Supported objects are Lines, Polylines, Fitted Polylines, Splines, Arcs, Circles, Ellipses, Elliptical Arcs and Polygons.

The user can fine-tune the end result by dynamically adjusting the text size, character spacing, character alignment and flipping the text direction. The end result is a curved text whereby the individual characters are combined into a single anonymous group. (Make sure the PICKSTYLE variable is set to the default value of 1)

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Line curves are handled differently—only some of the adjustment parameters are available in that case, as the text is not broken down into individual characters.

No group is created in that case.

Currently only mtext entities are supported.
