image with appropriate aspect ratio

By isxander on Sat, 01/26/2013 - 08:54

Hi,

I have a problem when i want to upload my pictures onto a cuboid.

 

The sizes that i set for the cuboid from the target manager is:-

Length: 1500

Width: 1200

 

Height: 500  The sizes that i set for my images from my files to be uploaded is:-

Length: 1500 pixel

Width: 1200 pixel

Height: 500 pixel  But everytime i try to upload it always says "Please provide an image with appropriate aspect ratio."

Is it because the size is not in Pixels? if not what unit should i use?

the other question is that when i want to add into my unity, should i use "Image Target" to create the box? or which one should i use?

 

Your feedback is highly appreciated.

Hi, the images that you upload must simply respect the "aspect ratio" imposed by the cuboid dimensions;

if your cuboid has Width = 1200 and Height = 500, this means that the Front face will need to have an aspect ratio = 1200 / 500 = 2.4 ;

What are the dimensions of the image to be uploaded..? 

Is it in meters or centi-meters or millimeters???

I would recommend checking if your aspect is rotated the wrong way first. The aspect isn't just about where the object is. Just try rotating first before getting angry at the aspect ratio (switchnig the length and width). There is some give to it I'm pretty sure.
