      Right click the texture and click "Make texture unique"

        Are we more accurately talking about distorted textures?

        I'm not familiar with Podium, but I used V-Ray, and I was looking into the matter of distorted textures on a thread of its own.

        In my experience:
        Stretched textures renders in all render engines.
        Skewed textures renders in all render engines.
        Distorted textures (non-parallelograms) are the only ones I've seen not to render properly in some engines.

          Marcus, thanks for your help, but I don't have that option after "right-clicking" the texture.

            ThomThom, I'm not sure I know the difference between stretched, skewed and distorted. I would say it's either strethched or distorted.

            I applied the image as a texture, then took the pushpins and stretched it to fit the face. Is that distorted or stretched?

            Thanks.

                thomthom, thanks, I see what you mean. Yes, I've distorted the textures.

                But why don't I see the option d12dozr is talking about?

                    Negative on "make unique texture". Is this an SU7 feature?

                      Yes, I believe so...I don't know what else you can try short of installing SU 7 free 😉

                            That seems to do the trick. In one instance, I had to make it a unique texture, then re-apply and make unique again. Oh well, whatever works, correct?

                            Thanks for your help.
