Removing a decal

[kevc70]

Hello,

I am using SW 2009 and have applied a decal to a certain surface. I would like to remove the old decal and put on a different decal. For some reason, I am having trouble removing the old decal. Is there a way to do this? Also, once you have applied the decal and closed the model, it doesn't seem as if you are able to edit (or resize) the decal. Just wondered if there was a setting that allowed removing and editing of existing decals?

Thanks,

Kevin

In the Photoworks tab (on the feature manager) there is a folder called Decals (under the Appearances folder). Open it up and delete the offending decal.

I looked uder the decal folder, but was not able to delete the decal. The decal itself is located on my desktop and not in the logo folder. Should I have the decal in the logo folder? When I click on the decal folder, there does not seem to be a command for deleting the decal.

Thanks,

Kevin

Are you sure you're looking in the Render Manager Tab (left hand side of screen) and not the PhotoWorks Task Pane Tab (right side of screen)?

thanks a bunch!!! I was able to find the location of the decal folder.........(I had been previously looking on the right side in the photoworks appearance task pane tab. I have another question..... how do I go about changing the background of the decal itself? I tried changing the illumination of the face that the decal is on, but the background of the decal itself did not change. I'm wondering if this has more to do with the background of the jpeg file in general....in other words, how the decal was produced
