                              Tip: trying this plugin on an untextured object causes the fastest splat you've ever seen. Zappp - and SU's gone. πŸ’š

                                    Dear Dale,

                                    I have very little experience of rendering and I tend not to texture my models, so I am not too sure how to use a UV tool. By the way, what does UV stand for? If I understand your post correctly, the tool 'wraps' a texture around a curved object by projecting the texture from a plane positioned over and/or under the object. Further, the plane should be positioned so that its normal is along the centreline of the curved object which is itself aligned with the z-axis. Is this correct?

                                    Can one project/wrap textures from a plane over and a plane under an object by dividing the surface area of the object into two along an x-y plane? I imagine a vase with different designs on the upper and lower halves.

                                    Sorry for being so dense.

                                    Kind regards,
                                    Bob

                                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

                                      Theres a good illustration of spherical UV mapping there.

                                      And i tihnk UV is just he coordinaet system thats used when applying textures in this way, so thats where the name comes from.

                                            The use is simple. Texture your object, right-click it's surface, and choose either "spherical" or "cylindrical". The size of the maps you set in SU's mat editor.

                                            And you can in fact apply different textures on an object that's been divided in half.
