Re: adjust an image into a GL triangle

What I see in your images is GL Triangle without image input, GL Triangle with un-cropped image input and no GL Triangle with cropped image input. See attached for an example working with cropped image input onto two overlaid GL Triangle patches. It's pretty basic ; I couldn't reproduce the wireframe look that the second image you posted showed. The only way I could reproduce was to adumbrate the specified construct by deploying a Polygon Mode patch wrapping the GL Triangle, set to Wireframe.

Re: adjust an image into a GL triangle

sorry cybero but i think you dont understand my problem... i add a composition. And my question is .. what i have to do to expand the image into the triangle to link the image dimension with the dimension of the triangle.. i try using image crop but when i up the dimension from the original dimesion nothing happens... i dont known if image crop is the way to do that ... any ideas please!!?? thanks

Re: adjust an image into a GL triangle

the easiest way to fix your problem is to use a image texture that can be uv mapped correctly. (see pic) the purple area will not render only the magenta and lines.... also it is possible to just use a triangle mesh (see patch), or to complicate things a great deal its also possible to render just one triangle strip out of lets say a cube model by using just one face's indices (see patch). you more than likely will never go the 3rd route but it does illustrate how gl triangles work.
