No, it’s not possible in Flash. It _might_ be, using ActionScript but don’t get your hopes up.

Use Illustrator, Break the Text apart, and then export a SWF, which can be easily imported into Flash…

Let me know if you need a more detailed explanation…

Thank you for your quick replies. Do you think this would work: Just break apart the text and do a motion guide for each letter stoping it at the right spot, though i think it would be easer to just break apart and adjust one by one. Hopefully they will implement this abilitity in later Flash.

Hi

The circle idea is covered here quite well  
[http://www.cbtcafe.com/flash/3dtext/3dtext.html](http://www.cbtcafe.com/flash/3dtext/3dtext.html)  
in a method using Firefox to assist in the setup.

Hope this helps  
(and is cool to link refer)
