Displacement Stretched

$begingroup$


I have a simple displacement setup as follows:



nodes



When I apply this same material to two differently sized objects, the displacement seems stretched on the larger object:

Scale has been applied (Ctrl+A).



Is there a way to make the displacement the same 'scale' on objects of any size?



Here is a link to the sample .blend file:

To have consistent scale, create an Empty in your scene and make it control the texture scale.




  1. Create an Empty



  2. Edit your material by adding an Input>Texture Coordinate, using the Object socket and linking it to the Empty in the "Object" dropdown



    enter image description here



  3. Scale (, Rotate, Move) the Empty to make the feature the size you want. This will apply in a coherent way to both objects that share that material.



enter image description here



Big Empty



enter image description here



Small Empty



Note: if your object is going to be moved in animation, and you want the texture to stick to it, then you should either (1) parent the empty to it, (2) consider following Mark Jackson's answer (although you will need to adjust the proportions of the texture manually), or (3) use an UV map.

If you don't use UV textures, then applying materials will try to fit it to the entire object. So if your object is long, then it will stretch to fit your mesh.



To fix this, in your node editor, press "Shift+A" > "Input" > "Texture Coordinate"
Press again "Shift+A" > "Vector" > "Mapping"



Connect them up like this and in your Mapping Node, using the Scale to make the noise texture fit to the object. In my case I used the Y axis and increased the Scale of Y by 10.



See below:

I hope you can see it ok in the image and that this helps you.

    One more thing, without defining the parameters (in this case, the scale) by using a Mapping node, blender will automatically assume the default values (X 1.0, Y 1.0, Z 1.0) and project the texture to fit onto the mesh object which in our case, is not uniform on all sides. So we need a mapping node to tell blender that these values are not default values and it needs to stretch or squash the texture to fit correctly onto our mesh object. In the texture coordinate, using Generated or Object will probably yield similar if not the same result.

How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

Image
3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question

Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

Image
up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title.
