• THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE ANOTHER
  SYMPTOM OF THE PROBLEM REPORTED IN
  HD51414.
  .
  Incident Diagnosis
  FSS DISTANCE ANALYSIS TEXTURE IS
  DISARRANGED WHEN VARIABLE OFFSET IS
  ANALYSED
  .
  Development Request Justification:
  Documentation :
  FreeStyle Shaper, Optimizer & Profiler
  Analyzing Distances Between Two Sets of Elements
  .
  The texture mapping is computed on the
  discretized surface. It is not advised to use it with
  planar surfaces or ruled surfaces
  .
  When applying a mapping texture on a planar (and
  rectangular) surface, there are only 4 points of
  computation for the distance (the computation is
  done on nodes of triangles of a tesselation made
  on visualization criterion), if for some precision
  reason or another, one point or more does not
  have a normal projection, it could give erroneous
  result (with the interpolation of colours made by
  the graphic card)
  That's why it is strongly advised to not use texture
  mapping on planar surface.
  .
  Answer and By-Pass
  none.
