apply Image on a model surface

apply Image on a model surface

(OP)
Hi,

I have simple block models and would like to apply a single image (jpg or bmp) to a selected surface. Can I do this without Photoworks?

Thanks.

RE: apply Image on a model surface

Do a search on Decals in SW Help.....  That is the operation you are looking for.

Cheers,

RE: apply Image on a model surface

If it is a flat surface a sketch picture may pull it off for you.  Also, if you create a texture and a patch with the right aspect ratio it may work.  I hope this helps.

Thanks for the ideas. Using sketch picture means having show sketches in assembly which is no good..never mind Thanks

RE: apply Image on a model surface

Create a sketch with only the sketch picture.  Show sketches and hide all other sketches individually.  I hope this helps.
