With this change it works. Text segments will be added along the curve. Unless the text overflow the line, then it will only show the first text segment. Just make the line longer to make it show again,

TextMorph>>createParagraph is the method that broke the TextOnCurve functionality.
It need a guard against applying wrapFlag.
There is also some bug with the bounds so the text will not redraw properly.
Something like this under will prevent the DNU but it will not fix the issue with the text bounds.

Hi, You can pull out a Line from the Graphics category in the ObjectsTool. Then enable 'drop in' in the Lines menu. Then pull out Text from the Basic category. In Texts menu you can then select 'follow owner's curve'
Unfortunately it it broken. I think because NewParagraph uses another notion of container than what is expected.
