In Imagine, when going through the tutorial manual about image mapping – it mentions resizing the Z & X axis of the "Edit Attributes" of the brush being mapped by hitting "S" and selecting the axis to resize. I've tried this, and all that gets resized is the bounding box. And when the actual axis get resized, I can only resize both the Z & X axis at the same time and can not resize only one axis. Plus, how do you determine how much of your image will be encorporated in the Z & X axis? Lets say I have a 640X400 24-bit IFF image that I'm mapping to a surface, what size Z & X axis should I have to optimally map this image to that surface? Or will it automatically figure this out for me? Does Imagine automatically size the image to fit what ever size I resize my axis to? Joe
