      Hi!

      I'm facing a problem on Cinema 2024, it seems the workflow to stick a texture onto a cloner is not working, i've tested the same setup on Cinema 2023 and it's working fine.

      I'm missing something on Cinema 2024 that's not working?

      Here's a example of the problem

      And this is the same scene on Cinema 2023

      Hope someone can help me with this issue, thanks

        Hi omardtd,

        I can confirm it and have already submitted a report. Fingers crossed, this is fixed ASAP.

        I can only offer a workaround for now, and I'm sorry for the trouble.

        The Size is adjusted, and the Offset in the Material>Attribute Manager> Tag

        My best wishes for your project

            Thank you so much for your feedback, omardtd!

            I think that is one of the things that showed up after the re-writing parts of the code for speed improvement.
            Thanks for pointing it out, and I will keep an eye on it.

            I hope it is not a massive limitation for you.
            I will explore some more options as a workaround, hopefully, less time-intensive; fingers are crossed I can come up with something.
            I will check what I can do. I would love to see small example files for your current needs to be efficient with that.

            Enjoy your weekend single

              It's okay with your current workaround, it does the job perfectly!

                Thank you again, for taking it so pro-actively, omardtd.
                Thank you as well for the kind feedback.

                Here are two additional and faster workarounds.

                I thought this would be more helpful for more significant amounts of elements, but I couldn't help but explore other options.

                My best wishes for your project

                  I believe I may be experiencing a similar issue. I can set my texture correctly with 'Fix Texture: Off' then when I enable 'Fix Texture: Straight' - the texture is completely misaligned. If I try to set my texture with 'Fix Texture: Straight', I can't achieve the same result as I can with it set to 'Off'.
