Thanks JD, sorry to be a pest! I will try to see if I can get the tiling correct using Surface mapping.

Hi Cary,

Look at my second example in my previous post, used surface mapping and fiddled a bit with the y-tiling. On complex shapes, rebuilding or custom meshing the surface is required for equal mapping. Noticed that on areas with denser isoparameters the mapping also gets denser. Use shaded mode and you can easily see realtime what happens when changing the tiling.
