      What is the trick to importing a clear image of a floor plan for tracing? I have a large .tif file that becomes fuzzy when imported as a texture. Is there another method I should be using?

      Thanks. Ben

        It's a common problem. Well not a problem, more a limitation. See this for a little more info...

          i think that's old info because SU can now support up to 2048x2048 if you have 'use maximum texture size' enabled via preferences>open GL

            you shouldn't have any issues with Tiff if you have max texture size selected.

                Thank you everyone, I will make sure the max texture size is checked and will try to downsize the image first.

                  Thanks again. I set max texture size and was able to use an image of 4000 pixels with no problems. Using SU8.
