Adding decal to surface, decal becomes mirrored

Hello,

 

I am trying to wrap a decal to a cylinder surface. No mather how I place the image it always ends up mirrored. If I place the image on a plane in front of, behind or in the middle of the cylinder it always ends up mirrored on the cylinder surface. How do I solve this?

Tried fliping the normal, didn't help. Now I can't even attach the image to the surface...

File attached.

 

Edit: First ipt is a half cylinder. Second is a full cylinder. Half cylinder wont work. Full cylinder becomes mirrored.

Go inside the sketch, right click on the image in the browser, properties, mirror vertical.

 

You shouldn't need to do this but, it's working. You can also add transparency from the image if any with the use mask.

Wonderful!

 

I must say, it wasn't the easiest to find.
