text 3d

[graziano-g]

hi, is there a possibility to generate a 3d text, a solid, to be able to insert in a group to identify a part then to re-propose it in drawing?
the example refers to a text generated with solidworks: I type a text on a floor, extrude it. Stop.
in creo?
Thank you.

I have always used the cdm packages and there was their basic command to extrude or to rub a text on a surface, a bit slender but it works; if you don't have the cdm package should be lisp but unfortunately doing a quick search I found only this hilfeseite solid designer - 3d-lisp programmer that allows you to write a 3d text on a bow.
probably there is also that to write an online text but I did not find it, then they are probably old lisp and to "actualize" to the versions after the 17, but I think if you have someone who in the company helps you you can jump out easily.

hi, in the office we have the package/extensions/personalizations cdm
I tested the function you're referring to yesterday, if I remember well it is in the toolbox, it is not so slender (for me ), the thing that I couldn't do is center, align in the center, the text on a cylindrical surface, the alignment is left but starts on the plan's tangency line with the surface, so if the text is long then goes out towards the left or you are forced to give an important depth. the alternative is mapping or wrapping on the surface, but I did not find / understood how to make.. .
another road I think may be to import a text generated with acad on the current plane, but I doubt it can give the expected result, it was also only because the file must be of a specific version type 2010 rather than 2013.
Anyway the result of the indicated lisp would be perfect, how can I charge it and then execute it? Thank you.

to hack or extrude text, use the basic command modeling text on profile:

the lisp I got it simply by copying and pasting the text and changing the extension in lsp, to load it just go in open and choose the .lsp file format. in this case being very old I added the "t" after the string :toolbox-button, very often it is enough but I have no way to try it; If the cdm doesn't work, he answers you right away as the lisp can handle them.
In fact, from your message it seemed to me that this lisp would not be suitable because it writes the text on a bow, while from what you write you have to "wrap" it around a cylindrical surface.
if so then you should first write in a plan the text "vettorialized" as suggested by kotm, then use the command "wrap on surface" that is, if not erro, in the 3d geometry menu in English or 3d curves in Italian, the position of the tab should be the same.
sincerely they are procedures I have never used and can't try so I don't know whether they work or not.
I read that you're Emilian, if you're from the Parmean province years ago there was a cdm programmer, I think it's called myrko, very good with the lisp.

hi, the lisp at import generates an error, patience. .
However, for what I have to do, the procedure that satisfies me is this:

if so then you should first write in a plan the text "vettorialized" as suggested by kotm, then use the command "wrap on surface" that is, if not erro, in the 3d geometry menu in English or 3d curves in Italian, the position of the tab should be the same.

below the result obtained.
first generate a tangent plan the surface concerned, follow the procedure indicated above and the game is made.
necessary later to generate a group within which to put the solid and the path/curva 3d generated so that you can place/seat simultaneously solid and curve 3d.
thanks for the directions.
