Thanks for this tutorial, I’m new to Inkscape and have found this tut very helpful.
However, I was also having problems with the Envelope Effect. But I have found
a way around it by drawing your Bounding Box using the Bezier Tool instead of
using the Rectangle Tool. Now the Envelope Effect works as expected.

Cheers.

For anyone having trouble with the letter disappearing, see if it is below your document. If your starting size is small, it might be almost invisible.

Instead of starting the bounding box at the top left of the letter, start it at the bottom right of the letter instead of the top left. This works for me every time.

I must be doing something wrong but when I create text, then create an object like a line, then select both and click text-Put on path, nothing happens.

Any ideas what’s going on?
