Cube mapping type

The Cube mapping type applies the texture to a cube. This type allows you to accurately map textures on objects of various shapes.

The size of the cube onto which the texture is projected depends on the size (min-max-box) of the original object.

In the case of complex objects with many faces, the nearest face of the cube defines how the texture is applied to the selected face of the object. Allplan calculates the distance using the normal of the selected face.
