Logo embossing

[Mike01Hu]

This is an adjustment to the text embossing implemented in 2.6.0 Alpha.

It would be useful to emboss a scalable logo onto any surface, as is done with text embossing. The logo could be based on an enforcer model, .dxf file, a STL or an exported surface file. This use would enable personalisation of generic models used in OEM environments, such as in casting moldings. This feature would save a lot of CAD time.

Of course, if this can already be achieved, clearly documenting the process would be appreciated.

Is this different from adding STL files to the gallery and then adding them as negative bodies? There are already logos there, e.g. the recycling symbols for different kind of plastics. I have the feeling that your feature request is already implemented.

Edit: link to documentation, IDK if you can expand the gallery yourself already (docs might be outdated): using the "add" button enables you to add custom STL files to the gallery: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/shape-gallery_301453

Thanks Martin, I'll investigate. Sometimes it pays to read the documentation!!!😉

I think the main difference i see is applying the decal/embossing to a curved surface instead of a fixed geometry item from the gallery. Optionally mapping a model to a face would be great!

Does Shape Gallery match your idea? We would like to improve the upcoming Emboss function, but probably not in this way at the moment.

I will investigate shortly and update this thread when I have done so.

Hi,

The shape gallery works on surfaces parallel to the base plate but not on curved surfaces, and not easily on flat angled surfaces.
