Hi Peter,

Thanks for helping me out on this. It's greatly appreciated.

I have an mc in my library with the dimensions 700x110. This is how I'm
creating the material:

var mc:MovieClip = new MC1();
material = new MovieMaterial(mc, { precision: 15, smooth: true, interactive:
true, transparent: true });

It's an interactive material because the user has to be able to use it as a
navbar.

This is how I'm creating the plane:

        private function initObjects():void {
            plane = new Plane();
            plane.material = material;
            plane.x -= 180;
            plane.z += 900;
            plane.segmentsH = 20;
            plane.segmentsW = 20;
            plane.y -= 300;
            plane.yUp = false;
            plane.bothsides = true;
            scene.addChild(plane);
        }

I've attached a screenshot of what is being rendered. Picture 2.png
represents the MC in the library that I'm trying to use as a material. At
first I thought I needed more segments or something but now I'm just totally
clueless.

Best,

Dave
