material characteristics such as relief. Offset in the Position option con-
trols the texture origin related to the model corner, in all 3D directions.
Rotation controls texture rotation in the three directions.
Wood
The Wood texture simulates wood. This is also a 3D texture, mainly applied as base
texture. There are two panels:
• Appearance : Color 1 and Color 2 control both colors that simulate tim-
ber bands. Radial Noise controls noise in the radial direction with a rel-
ative value between 0 and 100; default is 1 . Axial Noise controls noise
in the axial direction with a relative value between 0 and 100; default is
1 . Grain Thickness controls the relative thickness of bands with a value
from 0 to 100; default is 0.5 .
• Transforms : With Link texture transforms checked, all transformations
made in this panel are also applied to this texture that is applied to other
material characteristics such as relief. Offset in the Position option con-
trols the texture origin related to the model corner, in all 3D directions.
Rotation controls texture rotation in the three directions.
Tiles
The Tiles texture is a powerful 2D texture that can be used to simulate multiple tiles
and bricks. It considers two elements, tile and grout (interval between tiles). There
are seven panels:
• Pattern : The Type list displays several presets for tiles pattern, such as
Stack Bond (all aligned), Running Bond (alternated), and including a
