Oh, I get it. <g> But I guess I was thinking of this a little differently. My plan, which I will never assert as being remotely efficient, was to render the front of this thing in ortho view, use the rendering as the basis of a texture map of the entire front, including the labels, rather than doing each label individually. In PhotoShop I could zoom in and make a pretty detailed map. I can see though, that if he wants to get right up to each label so it more or less fills the screen the one-map idea might not have the resolution necessary. I'm having a hard time grasping why you'd need to get *that* close, though. Even a training video, showing the use of each knob and dial woudn't need to show the zits on the edges of each letter. You'd just have to be able to read the thing very easily. I'd have to see the unit, but 'till I do and see why it wouldn't, I think I could make a single map that *would* work well. Ah, don't listen to me. James knows what he's doing. D {I _thought_ you had a dime or two} T
