Hi,

I'm a newbie to SWiSH. I think it's a great product, but I'm in search of more information.

1. This site is great, but offers very limited "how-to" info. Have been unable to find any books, CDs, etc. SWiSH Help is fair, but what I'm really for is documentation to teach myself intermediate/ advanced SWiSH effects and techniques. No doubt that SWiSH can do 1,000 incredible things that only a handful of people know how to do. I want to know too! How can I learn these things?

2. Specific technique wanted (related to #1 above - case in point) How do you set text to a path (as you would in Illustrator or Freehand) EXAMPLE: (text) "CIRCLE" - I want to set "CIRCLE" on a round path and make it rotate 360 degrees around another object (as in, our stuff "runs circles" around the competition). Have no idea how to do this with SWiSH. Do you?

All help appreciated, Thanks!

JD

well for #1... the more you use swish the better yo get at it and you the more you learn... and for #2.. sorry i can't help with #2:yikes:
