Good day.
While looking at some options to get things done fast I stumbled upon a Rhino plug-in which is called Rhino emboss.
Something like this would be great if possible in Moi for people with 3d printers and cnc or modelers in general.

Another thing is ..when
you have a curve and show points...or even after rebuild to be able to increase or decrease your points count by scrolling your middle mouse while you are in the command.

Thought these would nice additions.

Thank you!

Hi Matadem,

Typically this type of "2 and a half D" ArtCAM type embossing generates polygonal geometry. Since MoI is focused
only on working with NURBS geometry and not triangle mesh geometry for modeling that makes it not really a good
fit for having in MoI, sorry.

Since Autodesk purchased and then discontinued ArtCAM you might checkout something from Vectric instead, or
maybe this one which I guess is derived from ArtCAM:

That wouldn't work because scrolling the middle mouse is already used for zooming the view in and out which you
can do while in commands as well.

Aspire 9 has an emboss component, intended to convert 3D model to ~ 2.5D model.
(never used it.)
