I’m trying to get two lines of text (using a shape – circle), typing on the path of the shape – –

The first, I want to appear on the top of the circle – that works perfectly, typing from left to right, clockwise, over the top

However, I also need a line of text under the circle also – counterclockwise- EXCEPT going UNDER the bottom of the circle – so that they’re both readable …

(I hope this is understandable – – it’s really hard to explain)

How do I get the bottom part working? – all the text seems to want to go clockwise.

thanks

Im not 100% sure what you are after here, but i think i know. Can you not duplicate the shape (keeping it in the same place, and attach the bottom text to the duplicate?
