      Hello,

      I would like to scale a texture with the scale/shear blue button
      without the shear.

      How does one scale a texture using the blue grip and not have the
      texture distort due to shear?

      Thank you for your help- Bob

        If you want to use native SU's tools I think that the best way to scale textures is by doing right click on the texture-->entity info-->left click on the texture icon-->click on edit and changing the size in the "edit material" panel.

          Thanks Massimo for the quick and helpful
          response.

          editing the image this way does make it
          easier without the distortion when
          manipulating the grips-

          Thanks -Bob
