I am just starting to use decals. I have pasted a decal on the side of a cylinder and it sits fine. Problem is it also shows on the opposite side of the cylinder. See the pics below. There must be a setting I am missing. This one actually is pretty unobtrussive but others have shown with the mirror immage of the decal on the back side of the vessel. Any suggestions?
Would have never thought of that one. Thanks Paul.
Stephen, change your mapping setting from projection to Label
John, I have it set for cylindrical as it is a vessel. I tried using projection and label but the image went away. Not sure how to use that option yet. Label works great on flat surface like for ASME nameplate.
Are you applying the decal at the part or assembly level?
at the part level
Stephen,
I don't think it is a setting you are missing. If I remember correctly you will need to split the cylinder's faces using the "Split Line" command to break it up into halves most likely. As you can see in the sample image here, you don't get the artifact on the back side:
