Hi all,
A long while ago I'm sure someone posted a method of projecting text
drawn on a reference plane onto a cylinder so it can be extruded. I'm
damned if I can find the thread now or the sites the thread pointed
to. I am trying (SW2004-SP4) to extrude text on the body of a
cylindrical tank (the manufacturer's name).
can anybody help here?
Many thanks,
Regards, Jeff.
