Create draft angle on extruded text

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how to create a draft angle on extruded text in max? I've played with taper modifier but this doesn't work individually on the letters or in the right plane for that matter.

After you Bevel the text, (while the polygons are still selected), hold down the Ctrl key and click on "Edge" to convert the Polygon selection to Edge selection.

 

You may need to do a little cleanup to deselect any connector edges on the top faces of the text so that only the edges are selected.

 

With only the edges selected, click the "Chamfer" button and set the size of the chamfer and the number of Edge Segments you want to create the radius.
