Newbie question - Text in an arc

Postby jmurphy166 » Sun Feb 22, 2009 4:15 am

I created a text within a circle with the arch that I want for text. How do I simply arch the text without the circle or remove the circle while leaving the text arched?

So I just fill my arch in white so it doesn't show up right?

Thanks for the help, just hiding the oval helped!

You can remove the stroke altogether, so you don't have to match the color to the background color ;)
