  text path using 3d stroke?

  Posted by Heather Crank on July 4, 2007 at 5:28 pm

  Does anyone know if there is a way to use 3d stoke as a text path? So that only the text shows and moves like an animated 3d stoke would?

  Thank you,

  Heather

  Thanks Dave. I’ll give that a shot.

  If you what you want is to animate text characters along a 3D path, this is entirely doable with the 3D per-character animation feature in the new version (CS3).
  I’m afraid I’d need a video tutorial to explain how to do it 😉

  Heather:

  Did you ever figure out how to do this? I’ve been searching online for two days and haven’t found just what I need.

  I’m looking to have a 3-word line of text fly in from screen, circle a state seal clockwise, then resolve to hug around the bottom half of the seal.

  Hey Tim

  You know I never did. E-mail me (heathernoel1@earthlink.net), I might have a couple of directions that might help!
