Thanks Yuri, good idea – shoulda thought of that.
In taking a quick look, am I on the right track with the attached?, and what hints can you give for naming the images file (e.g. like the prod_id from the server, getting that value the parent (see floating puzzle).
Many thanks!

Hi Mikhail,

didn’t check the Notify box, …so just saw this, thanks!

So, to part1, I got the letter colors working perfectly! Only one thing, my dummy texture has dummy text with a transparent background with the texture alpha to the BSDF alpha input. But, when the texture from text is created (now in color :)), I have a solid background. How can I make the background transparent around the texture from text (ie replace the alpha input)?

Having a lot of fun with this.
Thanks again.

Hi Mikhail,
Yes, it is an iOS problem, or a difference in behavior. In chrome, firefox and edge on the pc, node map you suggested on 6July (above) works great without a normal map node. However, in iOS, it will not. Found this by trial and error, but it is now working on both. One other clue that told me it was there but not rendering was that the shadow of the object appeared in iOS even though the object did not. Weird, Anyway, solved.
Thanks again on that.

Now, can I ask another question?
I have scaling working with a factor/value from the db, but was wondering if I could use something like the following (attached) set value puzzle to get the jpg width and calc the scaling ratio from there automatically. Not working yet, so maybe you can suggest. Am I on the right track?
Thanks again. :)

Also, on the texture scaling question, I have this puzzle that works if I put a constant for the set value to part, or send value from database, but I wanted to derive the width from the external jpg and calculate the scaling factor based on the difference to the original/stock texture as attached. Is this possible, or what am I doing wrong to get the mat1 width and make the calc vs the 512 original.

As well, even with a constant, it works on mat1, but not on 2 or3 etc. The xy “value” can’t be made unique in blender, or verge doesn’t see if I change the title of the value, so do you have a suggestion.

Thanks very much for your kind attention.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Is there an email address I can share screen shots of app w/console?
thanks again.

Thanks for the tip and video link Mikhail – worked great. think i’ve got the scaling with the value thing figured out too, though not fully implemented.
but thanks in advance. :)

for some reason I didn’t see the graph you attached … now I get it and will try it. thanks!

another error message with hope that it is helpful.
thanks!
