Question

Text Tool?

I have the creative cloud along with all of Adobe programs. I needed to make a 3D text and open the dimension program.  I am unable to find any way to create 3D text. Is this program not able to create 3D text? I know it does I just can not find it. 3D text is the most basic feature available on any 3D program.  I have spent more time trying to figure this out and could have just downloaded a free 3D program to do this. I am just not wanting to accept that this program does not have this function. Can someone please tell me how to access this?

    3d text is not a basic tool but an option

    1. 3d Objects [in the shape of Text] is a standard tool of Photoshop as Colin shows

    2. text as in a vector which changes size to match a 3d object is not possible in Dimension [yet]... it is one of the tools listed on the dev teams 'to do list' https://feedback.adobedimension.com/forums/552559-adobe-dimension-feature-requests/suggestions/31410262-extrude-vectors-as-3d-shapes and you can vote for it

    Ok, Its not a big deal really. Honestly did not get the Adobe package for the Dimension program but thought I would quickly use it to do some simple 3D text. It would be a nice feature though having it there. I ended up doing in my 3D max 2020 how I knew I could, as usual I turned a simple 5 min thing on my list into more than I wanted, 3D max gets a way from me with all the toys

      I think that Dimension doesn't do any modeling so far. But Photoshop can make 3D text, which you could export as STL and import that into Dimension.
