Text to Path and next line of text issues.

I've been searching Google and the Krita forum for any information on the text feature of Krita but I've come up empty handed. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or explanation of the finer points of the TEXT feature(s) of Krita? Two areas I'm finding frustrating are:

1) I'm illustrating a children's book and want to input text into an image. In this case three lines. Pressing "enter" at the end of a sentence will not give me a next line to type. What am I missing? Am I really being forced to create three vector layers to input three lines of text on a single page?

2) Text on a path. Does this feature work or is it broke? I found a single reference to a tutorial but it doesn't seem related to Krita: https://userbase.kde.org/Karbon/Tutoria ... Text_Shape

Question: When it comes to text should I just move to my Photoshop Elements 10 and/or InkScape programs for my text needs?

Thanks,

Chuck

For now, yes, use inkscape. The text-tool is probably going to be the next big Krita project after animation and performance improvements are in, but that's probably going to be next year-ish.
