Hi! Does anyone know how to wrap a surface around a sphere with I-DEAS 12?
In particular i have a logo (surface) that i want to wrap it on a sphere.
Thank you in advance for your assistance

You could try using the "wrap curves" command. You would need to extract all of the edges from the logo surface, then attach them to the logo part. Select "wrap curves" and select the surface, followed by the curves on the next pick and finally select the sphere.
 
Thank you xtocobofc, but seems that does not work.
I have extract and attach the curves but at the final step it does not work. Also i am confused with the X-Y axis.
 
How about using Emboss. I do not know if it wrap all around surface worth a shot?
