Conical Wrap?

Post by miaharmon114 »

I hope I am posting this in the proper area of the Forum. I have a Silhouette Cameo and have SCAL 3 and the DE software from Silhouette. I see that there is a conical wrap feature in MTC, is there a similar feature in SCAL? I'm trying to cut vinyl for tumblers and buckets and would love for the program to automatically curve the text based on the dimensions of the item. TIA

The conical warp feature was discussed a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks! Looks like its not an option which is a bummer. Do you know how to achieve a similar outcome using SCAL 3?

It is a feature that is planned to be added in the future. Keep watch for it.

If you have access to Illustrator or Inkscape (Inkscape is a free vector editing program), you could open your svg file in those and do it in there.
