Text to path query

[Evans8773]

Hi all

Just started using gimp again and have an issue I have had in the past but forgot how to fix it.  Applying text to a circle the top of the circle text along path does as intended but when I do the bottom half text it apples to the path like it is stacked and just looks like jumbled up spaghetti. Like I said this has happened before but cannot remember how to fix it. 

The initial text to path requires me to use the flip tool so it looks right but then after the flip I get spaghetti

Hope someone can help 

Cheers

Ah... you got an answer on reddit. Any problems then come back here.

If using Gimp 2.10 then Ofnuts has a python plugin that might make it easier
