That's because you're using the "Rigid" option in Flow - the way the Rigid option works is it only flows one single point at the center of the object's bounding box, and uses that to move and rotate the entire object.

Since each of the curves you show there in a line of text has a slightly different bounding box, they will all end up using slightly different positions on the base curve as their base point.

yes but if I don't choice rigid Letters are pespective deformed that I don't want! ;)

My guess is that the warping will be less evident if arc and base line are equal length?

No that will be the same result! Persperctive deformed! ;)

Cool tutorial Samuel, thank you. I didn't know that it matters from which side objects get selected.
Will watch it again and also use your shortcut list to speed up my workflow.

Hi Pilou,

Right, so Flow just does not do the particular job that you want there, you would need to use some other method for rotating your text, such as Transform > Rotate, or Transform > Orient...

In the future when there is such a thing as a "Group" in MoI, it would then probably work to make Flow with the Rigid option take the center of an entire group rather than just each individual object and that would solve your particular issue here.

A little Workaround ;)

Draw a solid Plane around the letters
Select Plane + letters
Make Flow (Line / Arc Circle )
Select Plane result
Erase it!
Et voilà!
Letters are not deformed! ;)
