This texture should now be visible in the Resource Palette. Open the Obj Info dialog box Select the Texture Tab and apply the Map texture to the object by selecting it from the texture list. In the Edit Mapping dialog box, the image preview is visible. The mapping type has defaulted to Plane. The origin of the image may not be as desired and will require some manipulation.
Several methods exist to alter the position the image.
The preview in the mapping window is instant. This will show a front view of the texture applied to the object. Select the move mapping tool that is just below the mapping preview image . Reposition the texture so that the placement is as desired in the vertical direction. In this example, the continents need to settle onto the appropriate graphic panel.
