Text on a Path

Postby moorrona » Sat Mar 04, 2017 2:47 am

Version 0.92 - (If I recall correctly, the same thing happened in the previous version)
Windows 10

When I copy or duplicate a group that has text on a path in it and ungroup the duplicate or copy the text on a path looses or moves from its reference point that it was originally associated with or to.

Is there something I can do to prevent this or is there something I am doing wrong?

Regards
Ronnie Moore

The issue is that the text isn't re-linked to the duplicated path, but still linked to the original path.
This problem will be fixed in Inkscape 0.93, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/312116
