[Obsolete] Tools On Surface - v1.1

How would THAT work?

Well, if move on surface could work, this should also work! Bu that HOW, just don't ask me, please. I always wish world peace as well but how that would work, I can't imagine.

I think that 3D text on surface will be easily made with the drape on surface tool.

Here Fredo explains the drape on surface and uses the example of text:

My TextTag does that but only does 2D (3D text) on surfaces - it could easily be adjusted to give other options like extrusion thickness.

This is Mucho Groovy-o. Thanks a lot.

Using this with JPP is awesome. I don't know how to draw anything yet, but I'll get there!

The future features will be awesome to have:

[QUOTE Fredo6]:
** PolygonOnSurface (including Circle and ellipses)
* TapeOnSurface, to mimic the Tape Measure tool
* RectangleOnSurface
* DrapeOnSurface*

I'm definably all for a follow me on surface

remus · 4 Jun 2008, 20:04

Jon, that could be...interestign. Howd you invisage it working?

I think the REAL question here is

"how would you invisage"

remus · 4 Jun 2008, 20:10

envisage it is then.

I'm really just following what ely862me said ...
To be able to select a curved face and be able to follow it through a line, rather than just a flat plane.

Wonderful! I don't even know how I could create the model below in other 3D modelers! Much appreciated

how did pul the shape 3d???

remus · 29 Aug 2008, 07:27

Joint Push Pull

I imagine the shape was made by first drawing the egg shape, then using the tools on surface to draw the first 'break line' on the egg. The bit above te breakline would then ahve been selected and shrunk using joint push pull. rinse and repeat.

Thankyou i really need it

deepammu · 27 Aug 2009, 05:01

hey... thank u so much for the plugin... anyways..... i want to push and pull on curved surfaces... have absolutely no idea how to do it.... help plz.....

Chris Fullmer · 27 Aug 2009, 05:54

You need the plugin Joint PushPull, lisetd in the post 2 above your previous one. That will allow you to do Push Pulling on a curved surface.
