Hi,

I have a viewport background however when I put it in the viewport it is zoomed in on one area of the image. Then I try to zoom out in the viewport and it stays the same. I have messed with the option in the viewport also. Can someone please help me to get this image to fit the whole viewport yet without distortion? Thanks

It's better not to use viewport background at all! Use a plane and map your background to that. :thumbsup:

Ahh

is this a Max Tip and Trick? If it isn't might want to consider putting it in there :thumbsup:

EDIT: How do I attach my map to that plane??

Here is a VERY old very crappy tutorial that I wrote up a while ago. I'm revising it with a better technique and all so hopefully that will be available shortly.
