Delete half of a bezier curve

Cadintosh 8.8.5 (Build 711). OS 14.2.1 (23C71). I tried searches and everything I know of, but cannot delete 1/2 of a bezier curve on my drawing. I can delete the whole curve, but cannot split it to delete half of it using either the Trim tool and appropriate line or the Split tool. Suggestions appr...

Re: [Solved] Can't see letters when typing them on photo

Thank you. That seems to have fixed it. I was wondering if I was losing my mind there for a bit. j

[Solved] Can't see letters when typing them on photo

Sonoma 14.1.2. GC version 12.0.8. For many versions of GC this problem never seemed to happen. I entered text easily. I have generally used black text on a white background and I could see the text as I typed. Now I cannot see the text as I type because the typing box is black like the text. When I ...

Re: Picture turns white when adding text

This is now under control in a circuitous manner. I can get black text on a white background via two different methods, but can not do it directly like I used to. I used to be able to hit the Text button and type black text on a white background; I did that for years. Now I have to either (1) type w...

Re: Picture turns white when adding text

Macvf: I did what you said, but saw no "initialize" so I deleted the prefs. That eliminated my problem of the screen turning white, so thank you. Now I can not get different backgrounds for the text. I either get a clear background with black text, white text with a clear background, or wh...

Re: Picture turns white when adding text

Fotokunst: Thank you for the reply. That looks like my setup, and yes, I have used GC since version 8 or 9 on at least a few different Mac OS's and have never had this problem. It is interesting. I will try what macvf suggested. Cheers. john

Re: Picture turns white when adding text

* Updates*. Yes, I am using GC 12.0.7. Also, this same thing happens on pictures I have previously added text to when I was using GC 11. I just downloaded GC 12 again after throwing out the previous version. I did not touch ANY settings and opened the same pics with the same result; the pic turns wh...

[Fixed] Picture turns white when adding text

GC 12. OS 14.0. Recently installed both. All tools seem to work with a picture, but when I try to add text to the picture the whole picture turns white. I still have GC apps, back to #9 I think, but only 12 is open. Are those a problem suddenly? Am I missing something? Pics are HEIC format from my i...
