In BIXPACK 1 - Virtual Studios there are several shows of a circular newsroom. On the wall of the newsroom are pictures of a world map. However, the picture doesn't go all the way around the wall. I tried to figure out how to make the picture repeat all the way around but I had no luck.

Can anyone help me with this?

The newsrooms in BixPack 1 are 3D models. In BluffTitler you can do many things with 3D models, including changing the textures, making submodels visible/invisible, scaling, add reflections,... But you can't change the shape of the model.

I advise you to delete the layer rendering the worldmap and replace it by a picture layer:
-press the ADD PICTURE LAYER button
-select the news_worldmap.jpg picture that comes with BixPack 1
-switch from PLANE to CYLINDER with the 1st dropdown below the textbox
-set the TEXTURE REPEAT property to something like (-6,0)
-use the POSITION and SIZE properties to place the map at the right position in the right size

Thanks Michiel! That worked great. Took a bit playing with the POSITION and SIZE sliders but once I realized what was happening I was able to get it just right!
