My wood patterns are not being applied

[Donald Thomson]

When adding doors and drawer fronts to my cabinets I select a rustic hickory image that I dropped into the:

\Public Documents\Thermwood\eCabinet Systems\Doors\Conestoga\Finishes\Hickory

subdirectory. I can select the image when setting my material. However another material, calico hickory (default) is displayed. If I select one of the standard images for hickory for Conestoga doors they are displayed properly. Shouldn't I be able to add additional images to these directories? Yes, I did restart eCab after putting the new image in the directory. I must be missing something here.....

Yes, I do have the image sized 100x100 pixels.

Don,

To add a custom texture to the door designer you must change the texture image for one of the existing textures without changing the name. overwrite one of the textures you don't use much (I always used the heatherblue 15 sheen) This has to be done in two directories and I would have to hunt for them in Version 6.

I gave up on this as every time a new version and sometimes a new build was installed my custom colors were changed back by eCabinets and you have to go through the whole process again.

It is easier to just use texture match

The paths in XP for changing a White Birch door would be these two directories

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Thermwood\eCabinet Systems\Doors\Conestoga\FINISHES\white birch

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Thermwood\eCabinet Systems\materials\White Birch

You would have to do the same thing for Cherry, Red Oak, and Hard Maple directories

Remember you can't change the name of the existing texture in these directories
