Changing grain direction on display cube

Post by Joe Murphy »

I did some work on a countertop in the part editor and neglected to see that the grain direction was incorrect when I loaded it. Can I change the grain after the fact or do I need to redo the whole thing?

Thanks,

Grain Direction change in part editor

Hmm, I just remade the part and the grain changed after I brought it back to the cabinet editor? What's going on here?

Joe,


Can you give steps on how you made the display cube such as; was the image tiled or stretched? What type of part editor modifications were done to the display cube?

Changing grain direction

Post by Joe Murphy »

The counter a 59+ long by 25x 1 1/2 display cube with the tile option toggled.

It was then selected and brought to the part editor.

I then made a cutout on either end to make a breakfront type top.

Lastly I added an ogee profile around it.

I have remade it 3 times ad each time the grain direction changes.
