Having trouble getting a logo design done in Fusion 360. Into another design also done in Fusion 360. I've tried inserting it as SVG, a Canvas where I get access only to the jpg I previously traced but not the traced version all to no avail. Should I use decal?

Bravo, that processing time in normal.  You now can post to the Forum using "good" practices.  By the way, when you do want to post a screen capture, use the camera icon right beside the one you used to embed your video.  This icon will embed your image.  Images can be in a number of formats, most common are PNG, JPEG and GIF (sometimes animated).

Thank you, I opted to put the logo and text underneath on the bottom. I think it looks better there.

Thank you, I wasn't sure if that's what that was for. I've learned a lot doing this model? I was wondering if it was possible to keep copies of these tutorial videos to revisit at a later date in the event I forget a proceedure? I saw that on some of the video's, (not all) that there is a download icon which I used to download your "SCALE" video but noticed that they are not on every video and I don't want to lose any of them.

I can offer you the one which covered the use of Techsmith Capture.  I have placed it in my Dropbox where you can download it from.  Use this link and when on the site, you will see a Download icon in the top left corner of the screen.  I cannot leave the video there very long due to my limited Dropbox space so download soon.

If I may, I'd like to know if I can curve this logo like a shield from it's current position or do I need to back up from where I'm at and do it from the bottom circle or do I need to go all the way back in the time line and do it with the first circle first then add the rest?

I did not see any listed radius for the curve you wanted to use.  The attached model is using a 185mm radius.  You can adjust the radius, within reason, using the indicated sketch in the timeline.  I wanted you to know, that the telephone number, below the arrow, was not on the same plane as the arrow or rest of the lettering.  I had to align it to curve the logo.   By the way, this model is composed of a number of disconnected bodies.  How do you plan to use it as these multiple bodies will be an issue with certain processes.

 

Edit: Attached model has been replaced since first posting, please download new one.

Second Edit: 100mm radius bend added.

Ok, so, I intend to use it as my new logo. I will be putting it on various items and using the shield as a business card printed in 3D. 

 

Looking at the work you did, the lettering and the spear are about the radius I'd like on the shield and maybe a touch more but the lettering and spear would remain straight.

You statement contradicts itself.  You say the curve is about correct but then you say the arrow and the text will remain straight!  Are you saying the only thing that will be curved is the round body with the symbol?  As it is now, all bodies are wrapped on a curve, their relationship to each other has not been changed except for the mentioned misalignment of the telephone number with the rest of the text.

 

You now have the process from the model I sent, you can edited it as needed.  If my Forum post solved your question, please select the "Accept Solution" icon to do three things. First it allows others to find a solution to a similar question, two, it closes the Forum post and last, it acknowledges that you accept the solution given. If you need further help, please ask.

Yes, that is correct. What I was trying to say was that looking at what you did with the text and spear is approximately what I want to do to the shield or the round body.

"You now have the process from the model I sent, you can edited it as needed". I don't see your point. If you are saying I can edit one of the files you sent, I wouldn't know how to do that except to delete the process to get the part of the logo that needs to be straight is straight and the shield is the only body that needs to be curved. I did a lot of the stuff that was supposed to allow me to curve the shield but when I get to the loft part, I have no idea what that command is asking me for or how to use the loft. As you can see, I set the point on top of the shield, ie round body with symbol, but don't know what I'm supposed to select to get it to curve.

I do not see anything to react to.  In my previous post, I show you how to modify the radius of the logo curve so I feel you have the information to tweak the model to suit.  If not, give me "detail" dimensions and description of what you need and I will try and help.  I do not want to do experimental models, just the final one you need.

I don't see what you're talking about and I don't know how to be more precise about what I'm trying to do. The logo is a GREEK SHIELD. It needs to be slightly curved like. a shield. The radius is subjective. I don't know what radius I want to use, it's something I have to see and adjust to taste.  I don't want to arc the entire logo, only the shield. The copy, ie the text, is left flat. I tried to download the second one as you suggest but cannot open it so I cannot say the question is resolved. I guess I'll look at the timeline and see if I can stumble through it. Thanks though. If I figure it out I'll let yo know.

I understand how to get the logo in to the program, but how do I get it to go to the front? It comes in to the side of the body and I can not get it to go to the frount.
