How do I place decals?

[Shortnort]

I have followed the video exactly, but my OIP never has a decals palette.  I extracted a face of an object, moved it slightly away from the object, etc..... Shows as a NURBS object.

 

But no "ADD DECAL" pull down like in the video...

 

What am I doing wrong?

Right-click on the texture then 'Add Decal...'. Think the button was removed a couple of versions ago.

I lately looked in the current Help Files for Decals.

For me it looked feasible there.

Thanks, Tom.

Zoomer - there are videos on the 2025 help site.  However, the video is NOT what actually appears on my screen.

Many of the videos on the help pages are not up to date.
