If have got an other question, this time about textures. I can add a texture to a shape. But can I add a texture to one part of the shape and an other text. to a 2nd part of that particular shape? and how?

This one is quite simple - you need Selection sets.

Go into face mode and select the faces you want for texture 1.

choose, Selection|Set Selection - this creates a Tag next to you poly object in the Object Manager. - Double click it to give it a name e.g. T1.

Now, click somewhere in the right of the Object Manager to deselect the Tag.

Then, deselect all of your faces or invert or whatever you want to selec the other faces for texture 2.

choose, Selection|Set Selection - this creates a Tag next to your poly object in the Object Manager. - Double click it to give it a name e.g. T2.

Now create two textures and drag them onto the poly object.

Once there, enter T1 in the selection box of the Texture Tag for texture 1 and T2 in the selection box of the Texture Tage for texture 2.

you know have two materials assigned to seperate parts of one object.:scream:

Glad I could help. I love using Cinema and I remeber having trouble with the same problem as you.

As long as this forum continues to help Newbies and not-so-newbies like me, then more people will use it and Maxon will keep making it better.

Guys!

This was a question I was going to ask but was waiting for the manuals first.

Thanks for the step-by-step.
