Wrap / Project (Emboss / Deboss on a Face)

Wrap a sketch around a cylinder or project it onto a face, then raise or recess it.

Edition: Standard+

What it does

Places a closed sketch on a face, then makes it raised (Emboss) or recessed (Deboss). Wrap mode rolls the sketch around a cylinder and keeps its length. Project projects it straight onto the face, for example a logo on a bottle.

Where to find it

  • Model › Features › Wrap / Project
  • While sketching: Reference / Snap › Wrap (finishes the sketch and opens this command right away)

Note: The command box is floating (it does not lock the screen). Drag its title bar to move it. The preview updates immediately when you change a value. OK saves one Undo step. Cancel, ✕ or Esc cancels. If the conditions are not complete, the OK button is grey and an orange message tells you what to select.
