Hi Mojca

I've had a play with your code and as you say it's a bit tricky to keep the fonts sizes consistent on a path. It would be nice to be able to define the font size to be used on the path, and where the text starts on a path. I know that this is very recent work done by Mikael and Hans so it's pretty much under development but I'm sure things will change in the future. And as you say "Awesome functionality"!

Best wishes
Keith

There is the command lmt_oscillated[...] in the latest update. Have a

Awesome functionality, thanks a lot for the pointer!

That actually already answers the second question that I had: how to
convert text to curves ;)
(I was at a fab lab earlier today and the initial text (from
lmt_followtext) did not come through before, while this does.)

But now I have the third question: how can I avoid changing text size,
so that it does NOT fit the full length of the curve, but use a
consistent size instead?

I can of course shorten the curve and only keep an arc, but I would
like to typeset 20 different words on an arc while keeping the font
size consistent.
