I’m making this thing for school in freehand, and I have a problem with attaching text to path. I have a circle, and I want the text to be attached to that circle. That works fine, but I want the text to be at the bottom of the circle (curving upwards at the ends). If I move the text to the bottom of the circle, it just turns upside-down. Hope you guys can help me!

I’d probably just punch or break the circle in half, then attach it to the remaining bottom half of it.

yeah what he said 😛
alternatively, i haven’t used freehand, but other programs bring up a few little manipulators (my program used to have 3 little red triangles) and one of those would swap the text to the other side of the path. I would think there’s something similar in freehand.
