I would love to see the conical warp also! It would be great for making the acrylic tumblers!

There is a very high demand for this.

OK, I'm old and slow, what do you mean by conical warp? Do either of you have an example to share???

TKS,

HI there

It is a bit like putting text on a path in a semi -circular fashion, it is a feature in MTC which I saw in a video, and puts text/design in good way so that it can be applied to glasses/tumblers or other round objects

Lots of tumblers decorated with vinyl are apparently done that way

I too would love to have this feature. I've been thinking of buying that other program just for conical warp, but I really don't want to do it! I only use SCAL with my Pazzles, and I love it. Acrylic tumblers and other projects would be so much easier to do..

I agree that this would be very helpful. I design in Inkscape then I have to use an .svg or trace the .png image. It would be nice to eliminate that step.

but if you make an svg you just import it into scal and cut.

I tend to design in inkscape.

but it would be cool to have this feature in scal

Passed your suggestion onto CraftEdge. Let's see if they add the feature.

I used text on path to do it for a Starbucks logo for a mug. It is not as automatic as Warp but it does get the job done!

See this post about how to.
