I have a picture that I'm trying to wrap around a sphere but I don't know how to do that. I know how to roll around 1 axis but can get it to work around a sphere. Any ideas?

translate your dwg above the sphere. make sure sphere is solid. go xform.. project..to surface... now this can be chained as a toolpath with multi axis.

2 boxes you can check.... view and normal... this differs from normal view and the actual distorted view.

Okay I got to this point but it only seems to be doing half the image onto both sides..... still working.

first ensure yous sphere is larger than your dwg. it shouldnt overlap when looking down on it in top view.

Without creating a 'fisheye' compression in the corners you will have stretched corners when viewed tangentially.

Use project toolpath. Have your surface on top view and place your picture well above the surface, Some 100MM above. translate, rotate, as needed, go to isometric view and project the geometry onto the surface, follow the prompts and instructions as you go.
