I've learned my lesson well. You can't please everyone,so you have to please yourself

JamesB-
I am trying to do a sign that has a concave center with a tree that has a convex shape. I see that you made the tree raised, is it curved?
I am also trying to carve the letters into the concave surface, they are cutting as if it is a flat surface. I know that if you V-carve your letters you can check the box to follow the 3-D contour but I don't find where you can do this with anything else.
I don't know how to copy the 3-D profile.
Do you do Dropbox if so I can send the files that way.
If you can help I would appriciate it very much.

Palmetto WW - the sign looks great.

WoodenCreation995 - my best suggestion is to drop an email to support@vectric.com with some screen shots attached to help describe the problem you are having more clearly and they will be able to help. If they want to see the file then they can arrange that with you.

Regards,
JamesB
