Hi All - So I’m using the bevel deformer on some cubes and I want a specific color on the bevel only. What would I use for the selection field in the texture tag?

Hi Zorpzero,

Select all polygons of the cube before the Bevel Deformer is applied (or active). This is the selection for the Texture Tag which is positioned right sided from the Texture Tag containing the Material for the bevel. This is not documented to my knowledge, I hope I tested this enough to suggest it.

The Texture Tag for the Bevel Material has no entry in the Selection field.

Please have a look to the attached file.

All the best
