Hello,
not ready, but I checked the concept.
Thank you very much for your kicks...

Cheers, Mala

I do not often work with moi. But if I do, I cannot believe what you can do with it....my deepest thank you, Michael (and to all you, kind, friendly and constructive folks...)

Hi Mala, is that going in the direction that you wanted? If not please post the .3dm file with the objects in it so I can show you where you need to click to control the alignment for surface to surface flow.

Ok - i got problems with the 3-axis-cnc machine where I intend to produce the ring. The idea is to make it with a polyline of the font. I created it. But...I cannot bend it on the surface. Is it possible that polylines cannot be formed on a bended plane?

Why not...

As you can see font is just curvated along the curve
so just take surface(s) as start and target and you will obtain perfect fit in all directions! ;)

Meanwhile it it clear. Tried it with a base line. Failed. With a base plane it works...

Thanks Pilou. But it is not wrapped...or just not ready?

...besides...how did you change so fast the text direction axis?

PS Speed is because i just record the "do redo undo"! ;)

So you don't see the mouse go to the icons and times to click! :)

Even that it's very speed naturally!
With the "Edit frame" (Options / Views (enable Show "Edit Frame") ) it's also very speedy!

Orientations of results depend of the place(s) where you click on surface(s)! (base & target)

And yes a "line" base can't be wraped on a surface curvated on 2 directions!
A "surface" base yes! :)

Hi Lara.

Watch the video on the links in my message, they are based on the method that was published above.
In the video, instead of pressing the done key, I replaced it with pressing the right mouse button.

Hi Lara,

You can use Flow in either "curve to curve" mode where you have a base line and a target curve (both being curve objects, no surfaces), or "surface to surface" mode where you have a base plane and a target surface (both being surface objects).

It looks like you're trying to go from a base curve but your target is a surface and not another curve?

For applying onto a surface you will need to use surface to surface mode which means you will need to make a base plane instead of a line.

If you're still stuck please post the .3dm model file that corresponds to the screenshot.
