Probably being stupid but...

Could anyone actually (in idiot proof terms) explain how to use these controls? I can't seem to get me head around them at all... :? :oops: I have looked at the manual, but can't seem to find anything.

I'm trying to do really basic UV alterations, like rotate a texture 90 degrees or adjust the dimensions of the sample etc... is this what these are for?

Exactly, but better learn to do your UV alterations in your 3D app ;)

oh I do, I just thought it might be useful for really simple stuff without needed to go back and re-export... and in terms of my original question, any instructions on how to actually use these settings?

That's a 2D matrix.

Rotation by 90° or -90°:

Code: Select all

 0 1    or    0 -1
-1 0          1  0
Scale by 5:

Code: Select all

5 0
0 5
For other operations, you need to know something about 2D matrices

btw, you DO know that for materials and mapping changes you can use the quick export function, don't you?
