Adjusting a path along a curve |

A simple technique to make a path follow a given curve:
Make a path that is a straight line between two points o the curve.
Eyeball where a tangent to the curve is roughly parallel to the path line (around the middle for a regular curve). Click on the corresponding point on the line, and control-click on the line to add an anchor,
Drag the anchor to the curve. Your path should be a line that is pretty close to the curve.
If it is not close enough, repeat the process for the parts that require it
Very often a single midpoint is sufficient, for instance the top of the wing is an easy fit:

Curved text |

I'm aware of the technique of creating an arc with the Paths Tool>Text Along Path but here's what I'd like to do. If I have an existing arc in an image (i.e.. a solid object or a geometric shape), how can I place text in a curve along its outline?

Vector Path coloured |

Hey, I want to refresh my Logo. The Letters and shapes were build on bad pixel at least by widescreen. I figured out how to convert letters and path with ai to .svg (Vector), it’s so sharp.
But with Gimp 2.8.22 I’m not able to put back that color gradient to imported path.
The result should be a .png and not a .svg
.. So can you help me please with mixing that sharp vectors with the color gradient?
When I convert a gimp path to selection, the pixels unfortunately always come back.

Drawing problem with Paintbrush, Pencil & Eraser leaving a trail of multi-shaded over |

All of a sudden, while I was working on a Gimp document, in Gimp 2.10 on my Mac, instead of drawing a regular brush/pencil stroke, started drawing a weird "trail" of overlapping circles in my foreground colour at different shades and opacities. This happens with both the Paintbrush and Pencil tools, and in fact it also erases with the Erase tool in the same fashion.
Troubleshooting: I created a new document and the same happens. I exited Gimp, went back in, created a new document, and the same happens. I rebooted my computer: no help. I uninstalled Gimp and re-installed it, rebooted, changed nothing on the tool defaults, and the same happens. I remote connected to the Windows 7 Pro computer at work to see if it's something with my Mac, and Gimp works fine there (though it still may have to do with some interaction with my Mac). Another graphics app (specifically Krita) works fine on my Mac.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Gary
