Advanced options for mapping textures

Allplan provides a number of new options for mapping textures to 3D elements. When you assign textures to 3D solids, Allplan usually chooses the mapping type that is appropriate to the element. However, this is not always the best solution. Using the Properties palette, you can now change the mapping type later.

The following mapping types are available:

• Cube
• Wall
• Roof
• Terrain
• Cylinder
• Sphere
• UV

Select the 3D object of which you want to change the mapping type and open the Properties palette. You can change the Mapping type in the Visualization area.

Architectural elements converted to 3D solids using Convert Elements retain the architecture-specific mapping type.
