      Hello,

      I want to cut off a part of an image which i imported in SU. I put it on a face of a group, but some parts go over the edge and need to cut off. I tried many things but didn't succeed. Only scaling on one side deforms the picture too much.
      What's the solution for this?

      regards, hhenk

        If you import the image with "Use as Image" then you need to explode that image in order to work it out(crop) further in sketchup. That image imports as a group with a few options.

          Re-import the image as "Use as texture" and then you can position/scale the image. It will only be painted onto the face, so wherever the face ends, it'll end too.
