Changing text colour on a path

Postby Tyr25 » Sun Oct 12, 2014 5:17 am

So I am trying to create circular text that is coloured. It seems I cannot do this. Is there any way to change the colour of text on a path and keep the path hidden?

Are you selecting just the text?

When using Menu: Text>Put on Path, the text and path can be selected and colored independently.

(On this version/system.)
Have a nice day.

I'm using Inkscape 0.92.2 (5c3e80d, 2017-08-06), 64 bit win8.1

The Inkscape manual has lots of helpful info! http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/
