Material not well applied in 3d curved imported from autocad
-
Have some trouble applying materials in Sketch up to a 3d curved solid imported from autocad, faces in the model seem to subdivide and the material applies to each subdivided face even if having the solid as a component in Sketch up. Is there a way to make the material applies to the hole component? I attached a picture of it. Can someone help me?

Have you tried projecting the material?

Hi sjgb,
A similar problem in another thread:
- start with softening the lines with the Ctrl+Eraser;
- then go to View > Hidden geometry to turn on the softened line;
- now paint one of the facets with the texture you want to use;
- right click > Texture > Position - and just hit a single Enter (no need to really position it);
- now turn off hidden geometry;
- now select the Paint bucket tool again but at the same time hold down Alt (the paint bucket tool will turn into an eyedropper i.e. "sampler");
- sample the already positioned material and paint the whole surface.
