Well, that's my problem: "When quad faces are rendered as NURBS pathces, stretching occurs". When rendered as NURBS I can to some extend understand why this could be happening. But this particular mesh is rendered as polygonal; there isn't any smoothing going on. That's why I thought this would work :) I wrote that I can't have phong shading because I forgot all about the angle control. If this works fine, I could use phong. If I get "phonged vertices and egdes" (on all angles) I'm in trouble. Karl This e-mail and any attachment are confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure.
