    Maybe wrong newsgroup - Alias = Showcase? Material problems

    I'm assuming that Autodesk Showcase *used* to be Alias Design... if not,
    read no further.

    In Showcase, I've assigned a png file as a texture map for a material, but
    all of the texture map manipulation controls are greyed out - I can't size
    it, move it, rotate it, link the texture maps between the color and bump
    maps - nothing.

    I've tried this with multiple maps, multiple files - it's always greyed out.
    I can see the maps on the objects after assigning the materials, but I
    REALLY need to modify their UV parameters. Brick usually isn't 2" long...

    Thanks in advance...
