      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.
