How Do I Edit Curves in Canva?

Published in Canva Editing 1 min read

You can edit the curve of text in Canva by using the "Curve" effect option. Here's how:

  1. Select Your Text: Double-click the text box you want to curve to activate editing mode.

  2. Access Effects: Look for the white panel usually located at the top of the Canva editor. Click the "Effects" button.

  3. Choose the Curve Effect: In the left-hand menu of the Effects panel, find the "Shape" section. Select "Curve".

  4. Adjust the Curve: A slider will appear. Drag this slider to the right to curve the text downwards, or to the left to curve the text upwards. The percentage displayed indicates the degree of curvature. Experiment until you achieve the desired effect.

Key Considerations:

  • Text Legibility: Ensure the curvature doesn't make the text difficult to read.
  • Design Harmony: Make sure the curved text complements the overall design.
  • Font Choice: Some fonts look better curved than others. Experiment with different fonts to find the best fit.
