      Here is a video explaining the usage of Tgi3D cross section editing tool. In your case you should texture the cylinder before you edit it into the tire shape.

        I have downloaded the training version, installed but I have just only this toolbar available and there is no cross section tool available! What I'm doing wrong??

          Hi,
          Opps the video showed old icons. 😳

          The 4th tool from the left is the cross section tool. In SU most tools provide a hint if you hover the cursor over the icon a few seconds.
