I'd like to place text that is curved and in a 3d model. I have used ARCTEXT to create the text. I'd like it to be "Convex" on the arc I attach it to. Then I use TXTEXP to explode the text, so I can further extrude it. This is for a casting that is essentially round and has raised lettering.
TXTEXP shows "0 items found when I pick the ACRTEXT element. Using standard EXPLODE changes all the ARCTEXT settings such as font, size, width factor, and orientation.
This seems like such a common need. Don't know what I am missing to make it happen. Anyone do this regularly without trouble.
Thanks,
PG
