hazemmostafa 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2007 Hello , Using the Text follow Path Method I'll show you the way to control a text area very simple . You may find this useful when design a web page template Lets start . In most cases when you design a web page template you will need to change font family or size of the text So the whole template will change its layout .. To control this in a friendly way use text follow path method . How ?! Let me explain to you The most important is that when ever you need to change the text , font , style or size of the text inside this text area it will stay inside the Work Path .. ok .. now very important this method is cool BUT The text area is a fixed size you already selected so IF you add more lines of text you will have to decrease font size or else it wont be visiable at all TRy it yourself .......... Hope you like it .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MediYama 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2007 Isn't there a much simpler way to do this? Just drag a rectangle with the type tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NgoThanhNgoc 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 I think so. Just choose Horizontal Type Tool (as it always be) or shortcut T and drag a rectangle. No need to kill time You may choose Align Left, Align Right or Justify as in Word in the tool bar.I discovered after 2 weeks of using that the two Enter Key have diffrent functions. One to begin a new line and one to finish Type command. How fool!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 I don't see a reason to take all the unnecessary steps to do this because with the Photoshop at school, you only need to drag a rectangle the fit your text in. Same with Microsoft Paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chesso 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2007 I think the user is trying to explain how to get a greater level of control, that could be found useful when designing web content.I am not entirely sure myself, but it doesn't look like they are doing the norm here.
