Decal Problem

Hello everyone,

 

I am having an issue applying a decal to a custom shape. The shape was imported as a DXF file and extruded to the height needed. 

 

When I apply the decal and try to resize it to fit the body object it will not let me move it far enough down to fit.

 

I have worked with custom shapes like this in the past and had no issue applying a decal, but this one is giving me issues for some reason.

 

Attached is a video to help show my problem.

 

Thanks for any help provided.

Please attach your model and the DECAL image. 

 

If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

Can you also add the decal file. How was that decal file created?

By creating an offset Body I have managed to scale and position but there seems to be a mismatch in dimensions or aspect ratio:award.jpg

Using a simple rectangular blend jpg I think you can achieve the desired results:Award2.jpg

 

 

 

 

The Blend I used from an online creator:

Thank you to all that responded. This was a big help.

 

I was able to fix my issue by resizing my decal to have more space around it before saving it in CorelDraw. This gave me more room to move the decal around while it was in Fusion.
