Issues with filling a shape with text that auto wraps.

Post by Tishea_Creates »

Good evening,

I am using PSP 2022 and I am trying to have text automatically wrap inside of preset shapes or selections. When I do the letters just stack on top of each other and if I detach it from the path it becomes even more of a mess that is unable to be reattached. I followed the older text wrapping tutorial in the Discovery Center as well as a newer one I found on Youtube. Neither method seems to be working and I'm at a loss.

Thanks in advance,

Tishea

It seems to be broken (same odd behavior on my side). It works on PSP 2021.

It's working for me using both preset shapes and selections in PSP2022. I tested in both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

Have you tried doing a reset? https://forum.corel.com/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=67616

Ooops, some of my settings were not correct while I tested!
Set the Leading and Offset to zero and you will get a different display:

Thank you for the replies. I was able to do what I needed to do after support from Corel. There was once again a bug that had to be escalated.
