Defines the pattern you want to associate with an object. You can base pattern size on the model working units so that patterns are not stretched or distorted to fit surfaces. Surface mode stretches the pattern to the extent of the element.

Smart Review also supports texture mapping. You can choose a pattern, apply it to a material, and assign it to an element in the model.

File name

Defines the pattern that you want to associate with an object.

Browse

Navigates to a file or folder.

Units

Specifies Surface, Sub Units, or Master Units for the pattern.

X offset

Specifies the offset from the X-axis. The pattern is placed at the specified offset. This offset is a percentage of the BMP raster file size. For example, a value of 0.5 equals a 50% offset. (You can also have a negative (-) value.)

Y offset

Specifies the offset from the Y-axis. The pattern is placed at the specified offset. This offset is a percentage of the BMP raster file size. For example, a value of 0.5 equals a 50% offset. (You also can have a negative (-) value.)

X scale

Specifies a horizontal scale factor to apply to the pattern. The software then applies the pattern to the surface at the specified scale. For example, a scale factor of two scales the image pattern to twice its size. A scale factor of 0.25 scales the pattern to 1/4 its size, allowing four patterns to fit on the surface.

Y Scale

Specifies a vertical scale factor to apply to the pattern. The software then applies the pattern to the surface at the specified scale.

Angle

Specifies the angle to rotate the pattern. A positive value rotates the pattern counterclockwise, whereas a negative value rotates the pattern clockwise.

Gamma

Specifies the gamma correction for a pattern. This prevents double gamma correction on the pattern so that it does not appear washed out when applied.

Transparent background

Specifies whether the background is visible or transparent. A transparent background is useful for applying decals to surfaces. A common usage is for adding foliage. The effect of a transparent background is displayed in the Preview.

Mirror Y

Specifies whether or not to mirror the pattern about the Y-axis.
