help with repeatable textures

Post by Jspro »

hello I am looking for some help creating what would be called repeatable textures for the program that I use which is called SketchUp a 3 D cad program , there are times when i use textures(pictures) on my models but they will repeat themselves over and over again rather than look seamless. I believe that the clone tool would take care of this but not sure how to create the image where it can be offset so I can use the clone tool. I have a video that was made for photo shop users I believe corral will perform the same task just don't know how to get it to be offset. appreciate any help you can throw my way John http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUgU81LF ... plpp_video

The procedure is pretty close to the same as shown in that video.

You can use the "Perspective Correction" tool to do the same thing he did with the crop tool if you're interested. Then you can crop the image down from there.

In the "Effects" menu there is a "Image Effects" option and in there you will find the "Offset" command. Do as he did and adjust the horizontal and vertical offset with the "Wrap" setting to have the image wrap-around. Find the seams.

Then use the clone tool to get rid of those seams. Or you can even use the Scratch Remover as this is designed to sample from the surrounding pixels to get rid of seams or hairs or stretches like that.
