The slice button will only appear, and work, with exactly two items.
Previously, each letter of text counted as one item, and you had to weld your text before you could slice.
This feature is one that has changed a few times in the 2022 updates. Sometimes you can slice text from a shape without welding, sometimes you need to weld first. Currently a text box counts as one item. But if you have a text box and just one other item selected, and the slice option does not appear, its worth a try to weld or unite the text and then see if you can slice.
=========================
Quick Tip - If your slice button is "grayed out" it is most likely because you do not have two items selected. When slicing text, each letter counts as one item. If you select all of your text and choose weld, it will make the text one item, and then you can slice it from your shape.
No longer as necessary, since text boxes are considered one item - Text no longer needs to be welded before you slice it.
