Stremik Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Hi all. Can anyone tell me if it's possible to apply an image to reference grid? I remember in 3DSMax it was possible to have three images placed at the senter of a constraction plane and oriented in xy, zx and yz, is it doable in Houdini?

tallkien Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Turn off apply operations to all split views, press "d" in the viewport you want to apply the image to and in the background page browse to your image, then do the same for the other viewports. You can have different images in different ortho views. Not sure how to get them all in perspective. You could map textures onto grids ofcourse, actually that would be better since you can scale them to your needs. I you need to work in wireframe, just template the grids and change the template object settings to be full shaded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
