Curved face text

[freddruppel]

I don't know if anyone has already submitted this idea, but in the current versions of Fusion 360, it's not possible to add text on curved faces (for example, a cylinder) or any other type of sketch feature.

It's possible to add text, but it many cases it can be really tricky.

That would be really awesome, especially for watermarks, names, logo's (SVG's,..), etc.

N.B.: In my case, I need this feature to put text on the perimeter of a cylinder, and it would make my life easier if this was a default feature ^^

Exactly svg logos on curved surfaces is a pain.

Also don't know why. sometimes the svg file just flips/mirrors and there's no way to fix this

There are two parts to this request:

1. Decent Text composition (spacing/kerning, letter scaling, on a path/curve).

2. Projection (wrapping) onto a complex curved surface.
