Benefits and Description
When placing a texture on a model, you can dynamically drag, scale, and rotate the texture. This works for the following projection types:
- Planar
- Cylindrical
- Spherical
A list of key functions follows:
- Dragging the border of the texture frame scales the image.
- Dragging the center point of the texture changes the orientation and position of the pole for projection.
- Dragging the image moves the position of the image.
- Dragging the circle above the image rotates the image.
- Dragging the icon at the top of the sphere rotates the pole for the projection.
- Right-clicking on the image frame enables the flipping of the image.
- Holding down SHIFT while dragging a corner maintains the aspect ratio.
- Snapping the center point of the sphere to existing geometry makes positioning easier.
