one side texture

I want to put a target on one side of a box. It seems that textures would work the best. I tried

Code:

target=viz.add('box.wrl')

pic = viz.addTexture('tex.jpg')

target.texture(pic)

where tex.jpg is a 256x256 image of a bullseye, but it puts the texture on all sides (as I assume it should). Is there anyway around that or a different approach that would work better?
Thanks,
Joe

You can use the undocumented vizshape module to create a box with each face split into a separate sub-node, allowing you to apply a different texture. Here is some sample code:

Code:

import viz

import vizshape

viz.go()



#Create box with each face split into separate sub-node

box = vizshape.addBox([1,1,1],splitFaces=True,pos=(0,1.8,4))

box.addAction(vizact.spin(0,1,0,45))



#Create textures

t1 = viz.add('image1.jpg')

t2 = viz.add('image2.jpg')



#Apply first texture to front/back face

box.texture(t1,node='front')

box.texture(t1,node='back')



#Apply second texture to left/right face

box.texture(t2,node='left')

box.texture(t2,node='right')

Thank you. That worked perfect. :D
