    Hi @roman_zeisel, you can use the Decal feature to place and wrap images onto an object.

    If you need to wrap a sketch or a surface, you can use the Wrap feature.

    Wrapping solid objects is not currently supported by Onshape. It is worth noting that you can do simple radius bends with the sheet metal tools. But this is only for sheet metal.

    Also, there are quite a few different ways to get bent parts. You can wrap the surface to the part, then use the Thicken feature. Or you can split the surface of the solid part, then use MoveFace or Thicken.

    Please share a link to your model for further assistance.

    Roman, try a different approach:

    Break down the geometry to simple logical steps. This is a rotational part with 4 patterned features on it. Try creating the "Blue Object" as a partially rotated object, and it'll go easy! :0)

    Hi Martin, thank you so much for your response; it was incredibly helpful! However, I’d like to ask you one more thing. When I tried changing the dimension of the pillar in the sketch, I encountered two errors, and I can’t figure out why. Could you please take a look? It’s about changing the length of one side, which I’ll mark in a photo for you. Thank you so much—I really appreciate your help! I need to change it on 2.5 from 3 mm but as u see, it just does not let me to do it.
