Am I just missing the options but is there a way to get text to auto adjust spacing when other objects are overlapping them?
For example if I have a Triangular text banner on a inner circle and its corners overlaps on the top right,top left, and center bottom. The feature I would want is to have any text entered for the next outer circles text ring to be able to see the overlap and create a spacer in the text ring so the banner from the inner layer does not cover the text and the next letter/word will keep going after the overlapping object.

Hi Xephan,

Currently, there isn't a setting that will detect an overlapping circle. Your best bet would be to manually position the text within the ring using spaces in the text field. So something like: "Word1 Word2 Word3".

I'll look into the possibility of adding this, but I have a feeling that it wouldn't interact cleanly when the circles do a rotation animation.

That is the current work around however its not optimal as it applies space on both words one backwards and one forward.
Perhaps having an option to set a origin point for the text to originate from and only push new inputs forward or being able to rotate the text once its in place.

Would having the option to specify a number of "gaps" in the text ring, and the "width" of those gaps work? It would basically divide the text ring into N segments with configurable spacer widths between them.

I believe so
