I understand you can create your text then use a tool to warp the pixels, however, I would like to build a logo, warp the text, then try out many different fonts. It would be nice to warp the text field then be able to scroll through the fonts to see what best represents the feel the logo requires. This could save many hours of work. Thanks guys! You do have an amazing product.

(Pixelmator Pro 1.5.1)
It depends what warping you want to do. While I'd like the transform tool to be non-destructive to text (and have some non-linear transformations too :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: ), there are some transform tools that will leave text intact. Effects > Distortion > ... and Effects > Other > Perspective Transform leave the text editable.
Hope this helps.

Thanks stef. I love non-destructive editing, too. Good alternative, if I need it...

Yeah, the Perspective Transform effect is probably your best bet here! Have you had a chance to try it?
