Hi,
My project involves projecting a decal on a three dimensional object with a curved face. I'm able to obviously measure the projected distance but I'm not sure how to meaure the actual distance along the curve. I have attached my file for referene. I'm wanting to masure the size of the eye holes where the lenses would go in particular.
When I measure the projected distance I get about 49mm but when I measure the 3D print out I measure about 52mm. I realize that this is because of the distortion from the curved surface but how can I accurately measure this?
Thank you
