The hype on the new creative upgrade to windows 10 mentions being able to take a 2D image and change it to a 3D image using the 3D paint program which is in the upgrade. Has anyone tried this and would it be printable? |

I haven't used it yet, but I'd assume that's a simple extrusion, where you take a 2d image and stretch it to be thicker. |

Probably what it is. Photoshop already does it. |

It is basically extrusion, might have some minor bells and whistles but I've not done more than glance at it. It is very easy to use however and free – yeah yeah, only if you have win10, yada yada. |

An app that does it has been available for a fair while now. It only worked with simple shapes. The demo was a cannon I think. You would still need to optimize and clean the file for 3D printing. |
