Curving Text

Curving Text

There are many occasions where I want to bend text around an arc or circle, the only way I can do it right now is to export my drawing as a DXF, import it into Rhino, do the work, then return back to Fusion. This seems like a very important functionality that most other CAD/CAM software has, that Fusion is lacking!!

Reading the suggestion and the thread here reminded me of this; https://youtu.be/A8GGWb8yX3E?t=566 (Autodesk YouTube video) tip about conform text to curved surface, start from 6:57.

All tough the example here is along the diameter and not radial it might be helpful for someone.

Hi everyone,

 

As we prepare to update our sketch roadmap I wanted to provide an update on this specific request. General Text Improvements, Text Along a Path, and Wrap Sketch are near the top of our roadmap. This is being reviewed for possible near term work. As that gets closer we will share more about the specific items we are working to address and ask for additional input.

 

Thanks,

 

John

Cheers @helfenj for the update, we're glad to see it's a high priority!

That's awesome @helfenj Another text improvement that would be nice would be that when you enter text height, say 3", the text and the construction box surrounding it is actually 3"

@kmcgheeCMFPG Dynamic text boxes need to be added!
