How do i rotate wood grain in photworks? I applied a photworks wood material but the grain is circular end grain and i want it running parallel to my body.

RE: photoworks

I doubt you will be able to rotate the texture to show the long sidegrain. Material textures are 2D images and if you have selected a circular end grain, that would involve passing across an "edge" to see the sidegrain face.

RE: photoworks

In your Mapping tab, Select the Projection option--this will allow you to rotate and otherwise guide the grain mapping.  I use "Current View" a lot for quick orientation to the view I need.

Follow Theophilus' directions. I believe that will get you the results you desire.
