editing image maps


Recommended Posts

I was able to import a JPEG into my resource browser and then I clicked and dragged the image onto a 3D box, but I can not see the image on the object. The attributes window shows that the fill does have the image on it, but I can not see it or edit it. I have tried to preview it in OpenGL, but nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Thank You,

There are some things to learn, for new users. Image Resources are 2D attributes (applicable to 2D geometry) and Texture Resources are corresponding 3D attributes (applicable to 3D geometry for 3D rendering). Create a texture resource and drag it onto your 3D geometry to see it in a rendered view.
