Full Version: wrap a neck label on bottle

Show messages: All  1-8  9-17

Hi Finema,

I did a script called UnwrapCone, which will also unwrap frustrums, which are cones with the top cut off.
Your wine bottle neck is not quite a cone, and likely is not developable (?).


The next problem is the slanted seam, which bows inward from a cone. So I tried adding a line segment from the bottom of the slant seam, to the top of the slant seam, as a substitute slantseam.

(The UnwrapCone result looks very similar to what Karsten has shown.

(My initial results were with an overly large unwrap, and the flow result was shrunk down... I'll have to try again... )

Awesome !!
I was able to use the exact shape of the cut and plated it with the karsten technique.
The icing on the cake: I was able to use directly the UV of the MoI file in Keyshot (import Nurbs or Import .OBJ)
Yes!
Thanks again to you and thank you karsten

Looks great - a Cremant! Cool structure in the glass and on the label!

:)

Thanks a lot Karsten ! :)

An easier way is to copy and paste my "nearly cone" in Rhino
use > Surface > Smash
copy and paste the unfold "nearly cone" in Moi And do the Flow
et voilà ...

But first you have to have Rhino. Second: What kind of answer would that be in a MoI forum? And third: Knowledge is the only resource that grows through its use!

Have a nice day

No offense, I just wanted to add another easier way to do this thing.
Yes I have Rhino, C4D and other applications that help me every day for my work.
I thank you again for your help.
What else is there?

Don't get me wrong! Everything is fine. In my opinion it's sometimes better to understand underlying concepts and ideas then only use the easiest way. As more we understand and use them, as more grows our knowledge. And more knowledge means better solving problems in the future.

Have a nice day
Karsten
