The title says it - how is it possible to put a texture precisly onto a nurbs model? Well, apply the texture is not the question, but tS means "unsupportet type" if i open the UV Editor and paint per face ist also impossible with a nurbs object.

How can i do that?

BTW. The search function for this forum is stupid. Whatever i enter just the first word is used. I.e. if i type in "texture nurbs" the function means searched for: 'texture' ignored: 'nurbs'. I tried with a + and also with a AND and also by typing the words simple in the form. Any trick?

dont want to make the object and then convert into polyhedron? do you really need to keep it as nurb? i think that will be a problem to texture nurb.

Yes i need is as nurb. Well, planar uv mapping is possible so far but i can just simple put the texture in position and scale it. Hmmm....sad.

Seams, such as from blend, stitch or scissor can be used to break up the default UV mappings/ textures.
It's not easy... but it can be done: NURBS sail.
It can be a bitch. Save the object first and @ each step. Easy to mess it up.

Only default UV mapping types allowed, nothing fancy.

Good luck!
