  • 1.  Putting a text object on a cube.

    I have a cube that rotates and I'm trying to figure out how to have a text object rotate with the cube so hypothetically each side could rotate and have different texts on the cube faces.

    Hi Darren, did you figure it out? I was able to achieve what I think your wanting by creating a cube and then typing the text i wanted and positioning it where on the cube i wanted . I then moved my text layer in the Object Manager over my cube layer so that my text layer then became a child layer of the cube layer. I was then able to rotate/scale/move the cube layer and the text layer followed perfectly.

    One way would be to use RenderView materials for each side of the cube. This would achieve the look however dynamically changing the text would be a bit tricky.

    Thanks guys for the comments! I had first made a custom animation that achieved the effect, but Steve's method was much more simpler and saves a lot of work!
