Tiling multiple textures

When you apply a texture, you can specify the horizontal and vertical tiling for the texture.

However, if you have multiple textures, the tiling appears to apply to *all* the faces of the prim.

Is there any way of applying different tiling parameters to different faces of a prim?

Yes, theres a way. You need to do it with the "Select texture" tool however, not by selecting the prim "globally". Just as you use it to apply a different texture on each face of a prim, select a face with this tool again, and then only set the tiles as you wish them to be. Rinse and repeat with the other faces. (It works the same with the offset, too.)

Excellent -- thanks very much! Didn't realise that you could do that (still learning my way around this stuff!)
