FlipUVW

For each provided polygon, the UVWs of the sample points of the polygon are exchanged to flip the texturing of the polygons. The tool is primarily intended for quadrilaterals, although it will work for any polygon.

Parameters

Parameter

Type

Description

TextureProjection

String

The texture projection to modify.

SubComp

String

Cluster of polygons or tagged polygons to flip

Pivot

Long

Which way to flip the polygon UVWs

Default Value: 1

Possible Values:	Description:
0	Use first vertex as pivot (i.e., flip diagonally).
1	Flip horizontally.
2	Flip vertically.

Examples

VBScript Example

' Create a sphere, add texture projection, and
' assign default image to scene's material:
oSphere = CreatePrim( "Sphere", "MeshSurface" )
CreateProjection oSphere, siTxtPlanarXY, siTxtDefaultPlanarXY
SIApplyShaderToCnxPoint "Image", "Sources.Materials.DefaultLib.Scene_Material.Phong.diffuse"
' Now flip horizontally the given polygons:
oFlipuvwOp = FlipUVW( oSphere & ".polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection", oSphere & ".poly[12,20,44,52]", 1 )
LogMessage "New Flip UVW operator: " & oFlipuvwOp
SelectGeometryComponents oSphere & ".poly[12,20,44,52]"
' View the results:
SetDisplayMode "Camera", "textured"
' Running this script should log the following:
' ---------------------------------------------
'INFO : "New Flip UVW operator: sphere.polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection.Flipuvw"
