I load a text svg into blender. While still a curve, I extrude it. The text in the example appears to be extruded at an angle. How can I extrude this at an angle with the base unchanged.
hi there! when you extrude, i think by default it is locked to the Z axis, if you press Z while extruding, it should unlock and you’ll be able to extrude at any angle. if you press X or Y, you will extrude on those axis’ instead.
When you have type your text line … you can too convert it as mesh ( menu object, convert, text/curve to mesh ) … remove double first then use it as a mesh … This way you can transform it way easier.
Okay I will try this as a mesh. I was not using a mesh at first because I was getting all sorts of weird “errors” when I tried to extrude as a mesh. Maybe removing doubles first will fix this. Thanks!
Hey, thanks! This definitely works. I just get weird geometry sometimes when convert text to a mesh first and then extrude. I have to figure out the “sometimes”.
