Extruded shape will only apply texture to the sides


Angela Verdenacci

Question

Hoping someone can help. I'm having an issue applying a texture to an extruded shape. It will only apply to the "sides" of the extrusion. It will not apply to the top of it. 

I have verified that the shape is closed. Also, the shape appears to be filled. It doesn't show as filled when in Top/Plan view but if I double click on it under the extrude mode it does show the fill. Attached is a picture of the problem. I'm trying to apply a gray tile texture to a 3-inch raised floor but as you can see in the picture it only applied to the 3-inch sides of the shape while the top shows no fill or texture. 

Does anybody know why that's happening?

Thanks!

Could it be that you just have sides selected in the Part pop-up menu on the Render tab? There are separate parts for Top and Bottom, so you can apply different textures if you need to.

If it's not that... not sure. You've definitely got a solid fill on the object and the object is closed... hmmmm...🤔

@Tamsin Slatter Thanks for trying to help me. Yeah it didn't work. I ended up using another extruded shape I had that did take the texture and just edited that. Thanks again for taking the time. Best.
