Importing Cinema 4D textures

Cinema 4D textures can be imported for use as a resource in Vectorworks files, even if you do not own a copy of Cinema 4D. The imported textures can be edited from the Edit Texture dialog box (see Editing textures and shaders from the Resource Manager).

To import Cinema 4D textures:

Select the command.

The Choose Cinema 4D dialog box opens.

Select the file with the textures to import.

The Vectorworks software creates a texture resource folder with the same name as the source Cinema 4D file. The textures are placed in the folder, which is accessible from the Resource Manager.
