Hi. Im searching for method how to put some text (as seen below) around cylinder (or ring in my example). I can do this by hand, letter by letter, but this is too much time consuming and hard to set proper length.
What I should know and where to start with this ??
Thanks in advance

hmm.... I would do it using the Bend command, in vertex mode.
Be sure to check the info line at the bottom, if you're not familiar with this command. Or check some video on the youtube wings channel.
VladD is right and you also will need to use the boolean plugin by ggaliens - the was a recent question about that, searches the forum for boolean.
boolean for just placing letters ? hmmmm strange I will try the Bend function
edit: thanks guys

Now I understand this function (thanks to youtube video by ArrowTips).
and result below ^.^

No, it's for dig the text on the ring surface - that is the usual, but not your case as we can see now.
thanks

but really this is nothing and very easy/quick to do
sadly my pc is too old and probably I cant make any render of my models..

Thanks guys

Without ggaliens boolean operators and micheus help I never be able to finish this:
I maked my first renders ever from that mesh

Toyed with Kerkythea and now I can produce better results ^.^ I love this little software
