How to Trace an Image on a 3D Surface in AutoCAD?

Hello,

I am working on a project in AutoCAD where I need to apply an image onto a 3D surface, essentially "tracing" the image onto that surface. Specifically, I want to map the image as a texture over a 3D model or surface so that it aligns correctly when viewed in different orientations.

Here are the specifics of my scenario:

  1. I have a 3D surface or model in AutoCAD 
  2. I want to apply a 2D image as a texture onto the surface and ensure that it fits correctly.

I am also open to using AutoCAD's .NET API if there’s a way to achieve this programmatically.

Could anyone please help guide me on how to accomplish this? Specifically:

  • What commands or tools in AutoCAD should I use for applying an image texture to a 3D surface?
  • If I am using the .NET API, how can I assign an image as a texture to a 3D model and ensure that it is properly mapped to the surface?

Any advice or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
