Anita Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 I have created a carpet tile in Vectorworks using 2D shapes, including circles, rectangles, colours and 2D spirals from the 2D spiral tool. Now I want to make it a texture, or at the very least, a flat polygon that I can make into a symbol for the floor that can be placed and rotated along with the rest of the picture. If I try "Convert to 3D polys", the spirals etc disappear and I end up with just circles and rectangles. It seems to have a problem converting the spirals to anything I can work with. I am trying to avoid having to make the whole carpet again in a third rate drawing program. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment
Anita Posted March 27, 2002 Author Share Posted March 27, 2002 Okay, my boss worked out an alternative to this, which is that we printed the picture on a high quality printer, scanned it into photoshop, and then imported the file as a texture. It looks great! But I have another question, which is added back out in the main page... [ 03-27-2002: Message edited by: Anita ] [ 03-27-2002: Message edited by: Anita ] Quote Link to comment
