      I'm having a little trouble getting textures to map over meshes & smoothed surfaces. Being a number of faces the material maps differently for each face.

      In the attached screen shot the Cube is created with Roundcorner & then the material attached.

      The chair is a smooth mesh (I downloaded it from the 3d warehouse & chopped it about) with a transparent background PNG as a texture.

      Are there any tools/ticks that I could use to get the texture to map over the smoothed faces as though they are one?

      Thanks in advance.

        There are several plugin tools to assist in UV-mapping.
        Look through the Plugins Index [Big Red Button] - use your browser's search facilities to find "Texture", "UV", "mapping" etc - e.g. UV-toolkit, SketchUV [$], UVtools, Fredo's ThruPaint etc
