Text went onto a path only with the Design panel's Put text on path button (a text layer and a path selected together) or with text.onPath. The Text on a path tool, in the Text flyout of the toolbar (tool.textOnPath), shows the I-beam over a shape's or vector's path, and a click there puts new, empty text on the path, starting at the click, and starts typing. The text takes the path layer's place, transform, box, constraints and effects, and its fills when one of them shows; the path layer is removed. Ending the edit with nothing typed puts the path back with no undo step. The tool measures the distance on the page, so a layer scaled more one way than the other, or shown smaller, is reached where it shows. Shapes in front whose outline is away from the click do not hide a path behind them, and paths that a mask or a clipping frame hides at the click are skipped, as are locked layers and layers inside instances. A double-click into a text layer that was just made no longer makes it count as an existing layer, so leaving it empty records no undo step, with this tool and with the Text tool.
