Editing Type On A Path

May 12, 2008 by Corey Barker Tip of the Day

If you’ve created some type on a path, highlighting that type to edit it (to change the font, color, spelling, etc.) can be kind of tricky. That’s why it’s quicker to go to the Layers palette and double-click directly on the “T” thumbnail icon. This will highlight all the type on this layer, making it easy to type in some new text, or change some of the attributes.
