I have been having trouble copying textures such as formica wood grains or marble and granite and having it reproduce nicely in o2c. Even adjusting the scale of the texture does not seem to work--it either creates small tile like boxes or looses the grain entirely.Your insights are much appreciated.

What is the resolution of your images?

Hi Leon,

Are you sure that these textures are seamless ?
It might be there the issue.

Not seamless texture doesn't fit a smooth surface texture. It appear as small boxes, as tiles.
Tiling is the regular performance for texturizing surfaces, and seamless textures hide the segmentation of each sequential tile side-by-side.

Old textures (available to DataCAD 10 and before) were not seamless, but all textures supplied with DataCAD 11 and 12 are seamless, and produces a great effect.

HTH,
Miguel
