Offset Texture (Panner) controle?

decorix

Hi all,

I've run into this problem were I have a tilling texture. Mapped to my plane 512x512.
The problem is that I would like to be able to move my grout up a bit so it aligns better.

I have een reading up on panner, but I couldn't find an example how to offset a texture.

Is there a way to parameter this with my panner setup? So I have some more controle. As I want to controle it thru
my instance!!

I've setup an example but unfortunate its not working yet. It does need to connect to my input of concrete texture.

Does anybody know how to tackle this?

Thanks

Something like this would be working.

You don't need a Panner for a simple Offset. Just add a Constant2Vector to your TexCoord.
For a material instance you need to use a vector parameter and mask off 2 channels - alternatively append 2 scalar params.

Thank you both in getting back to me. I've experimented some more, but unfortunate I didn't get it to work. So I don't need to use a panner? In my example i have masked off both 2 channels. But what happens from there?. You mention adding a scalar params is this going to controle my horizontal/vertical placement? Can you perhaps give me some info. Thanks

This is what mAlkAv!An meant if you need to change the values of the offset since it's easier to tweak it through Material Instance. You'll just change first 2 vales of that Vector parameter, first value is for X offset and second one for Y offset. Range is 0-1, meaning if you set 0.1, 0.0 that will offset the texture by 10% in the x-axis.



Same effect can be done with 2 scalar parameters and one append node if you want to have X and Y value separate in the material instance:

Hi Money,
Just wanted to let you know that I fixed it. Thanks for taking the time in helping out.
Thank you. Cheers Decorix
