SVG text on path is not working

[k7moorthi]

When i try to load SVG which has a text on path component, the canvas shows straight line text instead of text on a particular path.

SVG sample:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
    <defs>
        <path id="myTextPath" d="M75,20 a1,1 0 0,0 100,0 " />
    </defs>

    <text x="10" y="100" style="stroke: #000000;">
        <textPath xlink:href="#myTextPath" >
            Text along a curved path...
        </textPath>
    </text>
</svg>

Just resurrecting this. Will this ever be supported? @asturur / @kangax

Please add this feature, its very much needed.

It would be very nice feature!!! Please, add this feature

So, the implementation would be to allow for textPath property on a Text object that links to a Path object?

[asturur]

yes. another canva library has it, would be interesting to see if their code is pluggable and reusable

[meglio]

Which one? Can I use two libraries with the same canvas DOM element?
