DESCRIPTION
A new prototype feature is under development: 3D SDF of Glyphs.
The new tool is able to convert the input text into sdf primitives that can be blended and boolean operated with other standard primitives. It also supports extrude and torus modes.
The algorithm is so far still brute force, so may not be efficient for scenes with lots of characters and curved edges (e.g., the character "@" includes around 40 bezier curves).
The alphabet is also limited to ASCII characters and default Sans font in the first prototype as below, but it begins to reveal some interesting opportunities to add nice components to your models (e.g., serial numbers carved on mechanic robots).
