Arc Text
Ribbon: Annotate - Text >
Text for Arc…
Menu: Modify – Advanced tools >
Text for Arc…
Toolbar: Text – 
Command line: ARCTEXT
The command creates the Arc Text type object along the curve selected arc.

An arc text is associated with the arc along which it is built. It changes its position and stretch with the change in the length and curvature of the arc itself.


The arc text has its own grips that allow you to adjust the value of its offset above/below the arc and the offset along the arc from its left or right edge.

The arc text options can be edited in the Properties bar or in the Arc Aligned Text Settings dialog box, which opens by double-click on the object.
After running the Text for Arc command, specify the arc (Arc object (ARC)) along which the text should be placed.
After specifying the arc, the Arc Aligned Text Settings dialog box opens:
