text on curve length problem?
So there I was cringing in embarissment at all the wonderfull ideas kind people have sent me and I thought (yes I do think) what about Christmas Candles though a window.
So oft I jolly well go and follow the tutorials for the glass bit and place the candles and all is going well.
Final touch how about text following the curve of the window? Good Idea huh?
No half way through my text turns back on itself.
Ok you can phone a friend, go 50/50 or ask the audience.
What is my question?

Not quite sure where you want the text to be, but I just put the text cursor in front of the text and hit space until it was on the top of the circle. [And prosperous is the correct spelling...] :)

See what you mean but what sets the point where the letters flip?

The text has to start somewhere, but you don't want that happening at the bottom of your curve as at present.
So flip the curve vertically and reposition it by nudging with the up cursor key. Then add enough blank spaces in front of your text to push it all the way round to the 12 o'clock position and then back inside the curve until it reaches the bottom again. Then flip it horizontally so the text appears correctly.
