      ok, slowly getting the hang of this program, well so i though.

      how can i adjust the mapping to my curved panel so my materials show correctly??

      you can see the image needs to rotate to the left

      Thanks

        projecting textures works a treat. 😄

          Yup, that video came to my mind, too. Note however that while it may work (and look nice) on faces with such "little" curve, if the curve is "deeper" (i.e. say close to a half circle) when projected, the material will be distorted on the sides.

          For your model now it's perfect of course.
