    Do you want the text to orbit a sphere or have the text extrude out of a sphere while rotating? All easy to do with many 3D software packages that export to .3DS.

    What 3D software do you have (besides Swift)?

    I hope I correctly understood your question.

    good luck!

    If you are trying to get text to spin around a sphere, try dropping a sphere into your scene and then adding the text. Scale everything to the size you want it and make sure your text is close to the sphere, then group the text and sphere together. Then when you add the rotation to your grouped object, your text will keep a steady path and distance from the sphere. I hope this is what you were looking for.
