what if you render the 3d view with a rock material instead of just a shaded view

Hi thanks for the response, I dont have the time for the rendering this is for a quick presentation but would still like to have the rock wall visible in the shaded view as it is in the 3D view we work in metric in australia and I was thinking because the fill patern was created in imperial units that i would somehow have to cahnge the scale when impoting the pattern in, however it will not allow me to change the importing scale either. cheers luap

Hi, I have had rock walls go black in shaded mode when they are CURVED in plan. I had a great looking rock pattern working on the other sections, but the one section that was a curved line showed the pattern as solid black. Seems like a bug... Sorry for the bad news. Get to like black. best regards, Chris

Have you tried changing the color for the rock material in the material library? It defaults into an average color of the image which is to be used for rendering. I would also try chanigng the color of the surface pattern in the object styles window or object properties. The other option would be to change the scale of the camera so that image is larger and the scale of the pattern is reduced, then shrink to fit when printing. Those are just a few quick ideas hopefully one will work or spur some other ideas.
