ok understood.I am developing CAD application using C++ and Qt,OpenGL.How can I use OpenSCAD futures in my project?

Hi Please find the attache screenshot.I have to wrap letter T on 3D model. <http://forum.openscad.org/file/n16838/t.png> -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/How-to-write-a-texture-to-a-face-Solid-in-a-geometric-model-tp16718p16838.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

The STL mode surface is not flat.is it possible in openscad to wrap(2d polygon) on uneven 3d surface.? Can anyone provide a solution? -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/How-to-write-a-texture-to-a-face-Solid-in-a-geometric-model-tp16718p16883.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

While not truly wrapping/mapping it onto the surface, you can geometrically generate a masking shape to selectively intersect with other geometry: https://github.com/clothbot/ClothBotCreations/blob/master/utilities/directed_minkowski.scad <https://github.com/clothbot/ClothBotCreations/blob/master/utilities/directed_minkowski.scad> https://github.com/clothbot/ClothBotCreations/blob/master/utilities/directed_minkowski_grid.png <https://github.com/clothbot/ClothBotCreations/blob/master/utilities/directed_minkowski_grid.png> In a nutshell, you use minkowski() to grow your target shape by a simple centered cube or sphere, intersect that with your mapping geometry, then union the intersection with the original object. My little ‘directed_minkowski’ example is one way to control which ‘side’ the mapping happens, so you don’t get mirrored shape on the back-side.

There is no (trivial) solution for that. OpenSCAD is not equipped for this and the task is NOT just a snip with two fingers. You better switch to Blender, 3s Max or a product that supports texturing first hand. -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/How-to-write-a-texture-to-a-face-Solid-in-a-geometric-model-tp16718p16887.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
