Make Textures Tileable

There are times when materials repeat in an undesirable way when applied in SketchUp. IRender nXt includes a method that can solve tiling problems.

1. Assign the material in the normal way in SketchUp.
2. Right-Click on the surface and select IRender nXt > Make Texture Tileable.

Here are two examples using fabric material samples.

First, and example of a fabric that does not tile properly. The Book Matched method resolves tiling for this material.

Second, an example that is solved using the Radiused method.
