Hi-

Does anyone know how I might adjust image size after its been dragged onto a billboard or motion component? for example, using the 'Book' from the paper aimations in Motion Montage Volume 2, I drag a photo of an actual book cover onto it. Probem is I only see about 50% of the cover (centered) . I've played around with resizing the image before dragging it, but it doesn't have any effect. Anyway to control how images are applied?

Thanks much!

Hi Digimati,
you need to play with the tile and offset parameters to make the texture fit properly. A value smaller than one in the "tile" parameters will stretch the image in the U and/or V texture space, once the image is big enough you can tweak the position with the "offset" parameter. Take a look at the free intro class on texturing i posted a while back it explains all that and more.

Cheers,

Thanks Guys-

Got it figured out- I was on the right track, but some how didn't put the brain in gear and consequently didn't hit the 'apply' button when it mattered!

Thanks much-
