Design or Emboss Texture within a Drawing

Hello, I am currently working on a project where I want to add texture to a grip within the bounds of a sketch. Would this be possible to do? Or is there a way to CAM a toolpath using a trace toolpath wtihin the sketch to create a texture similar to knurling. The issue I am having is figuring out how to do a wrapped texture around a form body. I have attached the grip file I am working with. I was trying to emboss the texture pattern but I could not figure out how to emboss on a form and not a symmetrical shape.

Hi,

1. geometric pattern > only with paid licence and extension

2. use emboss tool

3. Try it with Fuzzy Skin tool in the slicer or with Idea Maker

Would there be a way to extrude or emboss 3D pyramids or diamonds onto the surface instead of cylinders? I couldn't figure out how to do that. What I mean is a full 8 sided diamond shape debossed into the surface to make a knurling texture.

1. embossing is done with 2 D profile

Instead of the circle, you can use other shapes such as diamonds, stars and irregular 2D shapes.

2. 3 D pyramid can be made with geometric pattern.
