Hi there, i'm looking to use the wrap tool to create a shape along a wrinkly type surface, or any surface for that matter. I've come to realise you can't wrap a solid, and effectively the only thing you can do is wrap a sketch. So i was thinking aboutdoing the following manoeuvre.That i wouldcreate or copy a surface, wrap the sketch onto the surface, trim the surface using the wrapped sketch, then thicken the surface to make it solid.
However, while this works in theory, it doesn't seem to work in practice. I can wrap the sketch on to the surface, but then i have enourmous difficluty trimming the surface using the wrapped sketch, all i can achieve is trimming part of the sketch away, not as a surface/shape, just the blue line of the sketch. Where am i going wrong? and is it at all possible? Please try it yourself and see if it works? If it does, could youtalk me through it step by step? any other queries or more info needed, just ask?
thanks for any advice.
