The spherical
projection's
Manipulator tool
Drag the handles on the special manipulator to change the coverage of the projection,
orientation, size, and so forth. All projection types have special manipulators. Figure 7.34
shows the special manipulator wrapping the checker in a thin band all the way around
the sphere.
To summarize, projection textures depend on a projector node to position the texture
onto the geometry.
