Hi Shapr Community,

I am wondering how to get this pattern wrapped around a tapered object? I can’t seem to project it or split the object to get the result I want. I’m currently making a beach bucket with a castle design. I saw there was a wrap and emboss feature that just came out but I don’t see it in my program.

 ![Screenshot 2026-03-04 at 4.31.13 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/3X/3/b/3b4c7f1aaa8228116b6a3d7fefd823982072a8ee.jpeg)

Please help!

Thanks,

Peter

Windows 11. So it needs download to install possibly? Usually it alerts me.

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for looking into this. I was able to update my program in the app store. I use a mac btw! Unfortunately, the wrap tool doesn’t work for this particular shape, but I was able to find a workaround.

Unfortunately, it only works on cylinders and cones at the moment. Hopefully they’ll enhance it to work on any curved body.
