I think the easiest way to do this to change the texture coordinates of each cube face to reverse the image in the direction you want. If you take the existing texture coordinates for each face and swap the coordinates for the axis you want to reverse, that should do the trick. Roberto Speranza

I have mapped 6 textures to the six faces of a cube. Fine. But I want to be able to view these images from the inside of the cube. When I do view them they appear as mirrored images. Is their anyway that I can paste the images I have to the cube (mirrored) so that when I look at the cube

Andrew, Looks like there is a bug with multiple tex coord set. We'll look into it. In the meantime, since you are using the same texCoordSet for all texture units, you can simply specify one tex coord set, and have all entries in the texCoordSetMap to point to the

Hi, You have to derived from Canvas3D and override the postRender() method and do your drawing operations in it. public void postRender() { super.postRender(); Rectangle2D shape = new Rectangle2D.Double((getWidth() - 70.0)/2.0, (getHeight() - 70.0)/2.0, 70.0, 70.0); J3DGraphics2D
