Hello @Anonymous are you trying to make a curved text on the flat space between the green and yellow line?

 

If so you have to create a 2D Sketch with a drawn line for the text to wrap to.

I'm assuming you are trying to project to the text onto the side of the cylinder instead for an Emboss?

Hi!

 

Try to use arc instead of a full circle which means you can trim bottom circle.

 

Hope it helps!
