Editing text on a perspective grid

You can use the Text Editor to edit text that is attached to a perspective grid. If you release text from the perspective grid while retaining its perspective (View > Perspective Grid > Release with Perspective), it is converted to grouped paths and can no longer be edited as text.

To edit text that is attached to a perspective grid:

1

Click the Perspective tool in the Tools panel.

2

Hold down Control+Alt (Windows) or Command+Option (Macintosh) and double-click the text.

3

In the Text Editor, edit the text. Click Apply to make the changes without closing the Text Editor, or click OK to apply the changes and close the text editor.
