Member Phil5635 Posted June 1, 2018 Member Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Hello! I'm trying to make something to look a little like a coin. Disc OK, but problems arise when I try adding text. I'm certain that I'm missing something ..... just don't know what it is. Picture 1 = placing 2 points, and the text is fine; I need to curve the text to match the coin, so need to add a third point or more, but then the text always turns end on and upside-down, like this: Any clues would be most helpful (I'm trying text for the first time, and using 3DC 4.8.15). Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Falconius Posted June 2, 2018 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 In the curves menu there is an option to rotate down near the bottom under "profile." That might work for you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Phil5635 Posted June 2, 2018 Author Member Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Thanks Falconius .... Now I see it! Rotation is in 'curves' and 'text'. Wonderful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted June 3, 2018 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 There is also a TEXT Primitive available when the Primitive tool is active. There are some unique options available with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
