Mapping Textures to Extrusions
Whether you’ve extruded a path you exported from Photoshop and treated with Illustrator or created an outline from scratch with splines using the Pen tool, when you have the 3D shape set up, you’ll probably start wondering how it will look with a bitmap image or movie file mapped to its face. It’s easy to find out.
Boris calls media mapped to objects textures. You can add textures to the faces of any extrusion, including extruded text. To try this out, just click the Extruded Text quick access button to create a new track of extruded text, type something in the window, press Enter, and follow along.
