BITMAP Sizing, moving, fit

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 11:40:46 GMT

All,
I have an image bitmap and I would like to map it onto a irregular shape solid. The problem is that the image after rendering is not centered on the face of the solid. How can i make a bitmap "to fit" onto any shape?
See attached sign and logo. The sign is blue and the logo is the image showing displaced.

Please help

Thank you!!

DDJUSA:

Use the Align 3D Texture command to place the location of the material. For more information with images, go to Help > ArchiCAD Help, when your browser opens click on the "Search" tab, and input "Align 3D Texture" in the search box, in the results list "Align 3D Texture" will lead to detailed information.

Don't forget, in the material settings click the 'Match with Internal Engine' button in the lightworks tab to ensure the rendered material is in the same position and scale as the material you see in the openGL window.
