Curves SketchOnSurface/de

Description
This tool maps a sketch onto a face, like a label on a bottle. The sketch must be actually attached to a face (see Sketch.Support). The mode of the sketch has no effect on the result.



Usage

 * 1) Switch to the [[Image:Curves_workbench_icon.svg|24px]] Curves workbench (install from [[Image:Std_AddonMgr.svg|24px]] Addon Manager is necessary, if not previously installed)
 * 2) There are 2 methods to use the SketchOnSurface tool:
 * 3) ; You already have a sketch that you want to map on a face:
 * 4) Attach the sketch to the target face.
 * 5) Edit the sketch and add a Construction (blue) rectangle around the geometries. This rectangle will be the parametric bounds of the face.
 * 6) Exit edit mode.
 * 7) Select the sketch.
 * 8) Activate SketchOnSurface by either:
 * 9) * Pressing on the [[Image:Curves_SketchOnSurface.svg|24px]] button
 * 10) * Using the entry in the Curves menu
 * 11) ; You have no sketch to map yet:
 * 12) Select the target face in the 3D view
 * 13) Activate SketchOnSurface by either:
 * 14) * Pressing on the [[Image:Curves_SketchOnSurface.svg|24px]] button
 * 15) * Using the entry in the Curves menu
 * 16) A Sketch_On_Surface object appears in the Tree view.
 * 17) Expand this object to make the Mapped_Sketch appear below.
 * 18) Edit the sketch and add geometries inside the blue construction bounds.
 * 19) A SketchOnSurface object will be created on the surface of your object based on this sketch.

Options

 * Fill Extrusion: When the Thickness value is not null, this will generate lofting faces (the blue faces in the above screenshot).
 * Fill Faces: This will fill all the geometrical figures closed in faces (the red faces in the above screenshot).
 * Offset: This will push the shapes mapped above into the target face. Do not put an offset greater than the thickness, it makes the face disappear on the inside.
 * Thickness: If not null, this will give thickness to the surfaces created above.
