Text on path not working

[dirkschulze]

With Generator 1.2.0 text on path is not working anymore. The segment coordinates were stored in number values but changed to objects with the number value as property and a unit as string.

This effects the test text-on-path

I tried latest master and either I didn't set it up correctly or it's not working.
my testfile https://drive.google.com/a/601t.com/file/d/0B1M3zV5eEym9OVlvdk5nNk1mdTg/edit (change from PNG to SVG when exporting)
this is what I'm getting in SVG file:

Looks like you have the commit before the last commit. I did not try with Crema but I get something meaningful:

<path id="text-path-1" d="M640,702c0,0,31.488,123.117,180.175,48.961S1008,802,1008,802"/>
<path id="text-path-2" d="M1019,701a63,63,0,0,0-63,63Z"/>

[imaderyc]

while testing this, noticed another case of text on path not working correctly which seems different from original issue; I'm getting zero-bytes SVG files when exporting from one file. https://watsonexp.corp.adobe.com/#bug=3921139

Irina's test case 1 isn't rendering quite right for me as well:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid" width="145" height="126" viewBox="0 0 145 126">
  <defs>
    <style>

      .cls-2, .cls-4 {
        font-size: 36px;
      }

      .cls-4 {
        fill: #226b26;
        font-family: "Optima-ExtraBlack";
      }
    </style>

    <path id="text-path-1" d="M1019,701a63,63,0,0,0-63,63Z"/>
  </defs>
  <text class="cls-2"><textPath xlink:href="#text-path-1">
    <tspan class="cls-4">text on a path</tspan>
  </textPath></text>
</svg>

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid" width="223" height="71" viewBox="0 0 223 71">
  <defs>
    <style>

      .cls-2, .cls-4 {
        font-size: 36px;
      }

      .cls-4 {
        fill: #226b26;
        font-family: "Optima-ExtraBlack";
      }
    </style>

    <path id="text-path-1" d="M640,702c0,0,31.488,123.117,180.175,48.961S1008,802,1008,802"/>
  </defs>
  <text class="cls-2"><textPath xlink:href="#text-path-1">
    <tspan class="cls-4">text on a path</tspan>
  </textPath></text>
</svg>

Seems like the path points are positioned relative to the original doc, not the new asset bounds.

Regarding Irina's second test case 2, two of the layers throw some JS errors in the console for me:

@mvujovic I can not reproduce it when generating the SVG for the whole document. It passes just fine. Maybe it happens when Crema tries to get the layer data of a specific layer. Then omIn._parentBounds might either not be an object or does not have the property. I'll upload the Generator file in a separate pull request so that we can test it.

[dirkschulze]

@imaderyc I and @mvujovic opened new bug reports for all the unrelated issues that were mentioned in this bug. Apparently the path is created properly for @mvujovic with Crema. Could you try to set up Crema again please?

[imaderyc]

I'm exporting single layer, not entire document.

[imaderyc]

can't reproduce the issue with 'ZZZZZ' in path anymore (not sure what 'fixed' it because I'm using the same build/same setup)

but text is still not rendered correctly in SVG file; path seems correct (numbers, not 'z' anymore), but when previewing in Crema or Browser, text is not shown (same as screenshot mvujovic posted above)
