How do I wrap text around a sketch curve using NX 7.5?

Referencing post: thread561-226111: Wrap text

Please see attachment. I am using NX 7.5 and want to wrap text around a curve on my detail drawing. This is for silk screening so I don't believe it is necessary nor do I want the text to show on the model. Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks,

eneumann

Insert -> Curve -> Text
Top pull-down menu change to On Curve
You will need a curve as a baseline for the text but you should be able to figure it out
Ask if you need more help

Jerry,

Your solution seems to be in modeling rather than drafting. Do you know of a solution in the drafting role?

RE: How do I wrap text around a sketch curve using NX 7.5?

You are right it is for modeling, but you can also do it on the drawing
If you don't see the below pull-down menu then you may want to check your Roles
Insert -> Curves/Points -> Text

Sorry, there is no option in NX to align the letters of a single Drafting note in anything other then a linear scheme.
