    Abstract: A text-on-path graphic is automatically created from entered text and a drawn shape having a complex path. Shape boundary curves are identified from the shape. A set of overlapping boundary curves is determined from the shape boundary curves. The set of overlapping boundary curves is combined into a combined curve. The combined curve and the shape boundary curves outside the set are assigned to segments of the complex path. A cost for each ordered path through the segments is determined, where the cost of each ordered path is based on a distance to a next segment and a length of the next segment. The text-on-path graphic is then created from the text and the ordered path having the lowest cost.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for performing inter-object interactions between vector objects to adjust the appearance of one vector object based on another vector object. For example, a vector object interaction framework may be implemented in which designers drag a vector object onto another vector object to trigger an interaction between the objects. Candidate interactions between pairs of object types may be pre-defined and stored in a suitable data structure. Thus, when one vector object is dragged onto a recipient vector object and a pause is detected, the object types for the dragged and recipient objects may be determined, and a corresponding set of candidate interactions for the pair of object types may be accessed, ranked, simulated, and/or presented as selectable previews. As such, one of the candidate interactions may be selected and executed to form one or more output vector objects that may be saved, exported, modified, and/or reused.
