    Is there a way to reposition a texture on a curved surface? I know how to do it on a flat surface but I cant even get the diolog box to come up when the surface is curved.

    Thanks

      1. turn on "hidden Geometry"
      2. right click on the texture in one of the segments and the texture dialogue will com up
      3. Adjust the position of the texture on that segment as you wish and click "done" when finished
      4. In the texture dialoge make sure that "projected" is ticked
      5. "sample" the texture in that same segment now that it is properly positioned and defined as projected.
      6. Turn off hidden geometry
      7. paint the texture onto the curved surface.

        Turning on hidden geometry did the trick. Thanks Sorgesu
