Detaching text from a path

To remove text to which you've applied the Attach to Path or Flow Inside Path command, you use the Detach from Path command.

To remove text from a path:

1

Select the path with the Pointer tool.

2

Choose Text > Detach from Path, or click the Detach from Path button in the Text toolbar.

The command creates two objects: the text block and the path. Any transformations are removed.
