Hi,I'm following a Substance Designer tutorial and encountered a problem in one section.As shown in the attached video, I'm trying to change the tiling mode of the last Transform 2D node from both Horizontal and Vertical tiling to just Vertical tiling (after changing the inheritance from "Relative to Input" to "Absolute"). However, nothing changed in the 2D view window, as you can see.Can you help me understand why this is happening? 

I am trying to use a 32-bit normal map (in the range [-1, 1]) to give a slight parabolic curvature to a mirror. I use tangent_space_normal_texture node to read the rgb channels as xyz normal components. The result is shown below: I should see the sceen slightly magnified.Any suggestions?

I'm working on some Substance Designer pipeline tools and saw in the API reference an export function: sd.tools.export.exportSDGraphOutputs(aSDGraph, aOutputDir='', aFileExt='png'). This is exactly what I need but when I tested it out in the Python Editor Substance Designer returned: [ERR][9]module 'sd.tools' has no attribute 'export'  When I ran dir() on the sd.tools it does seem that this export module does not exist: [MSG][3]['__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', 'graphlayout']  Was this functionality moved?

How can I edit the exposed parameters in the Substance Archive file in a Unity Script? I can see the parameters in the Editor when I click on the SBSAR file but I have some problems when I edit some of them like a color the object that I applied the material on doesn't change at all and I also can't figure out how to change them through code. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

I have a custom Python function that manipulates images. I want to run this function in a graph, possibly as if a node. How can I achieve this in Substance Designer?Both the input and output of the function is an image. 

Hi, I am using Substance Designer with Polish Keyboard layout and language set to "English" in Substance Designer. The problem is when i press decimal symbol on numeric keyboard I got "," (which is native for polish keyboard layout) insted of ".". However Substance Designer is not accepting "," as decimal symbol and keep ignoring it. Is there an option to change it? All other softwares I use does not have this problem: Blender, Photoshop, even Substance Painter accept "," and automatically change it to ".".

Hi guys. I´m trying to find nodes reference, but I had no lucking to find a complete description of the nodes. And several links load a page that doesn´t have the information I need. It seems that most of the pages in documentation are out of date or don´t exist anymore.Where can I find the real Desiger documentation?Thanks in advance. 

Sorry for my English! I make the texture of the wallpaper. When I blend my graph with uniform color and levels, pixels appear on the texture. I take a course on procedural textures and completely repeat after the teacher, but he does not have such a problem.

  Welcome! Plenty of things to discuss this time around, so let’s get right in. Substance News    New releases: We recently put out a new release of Substance 3D Sampler, which now gives artists the ability to send materials to third-party applications with a single click, using Substance 3D Connector technology.   We also released a new version of Substance 3D Modeler, featuring a new asset panel, a scene outliner better allowing you to keep complex scenes organized, and improved import and export. You can find more information on our Adobe blog post about these updates (amongst other things).   Substance Days at SIGGRAPH!     SIGGRAPH, the Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, is upon us; this conference takes place in Denver from July 28 – August 1. We'll be present, giving a keynote presentation, and our artists will be giving talks at the stands of some of our partners: HP, Dell, and sessions with Autodesk. Get

Hey, we are looking to buy a 3D laser machine for making personalised 3D crystals. We will be receiving photos from clients and need them editing into 3D and converting into DXF files ready for loading into our 3D subsurface laser engraving machine, which will then create the 3D crystals.My question is, can Adobe Substance 3D be used to create these files (DXF) and do the editing work we need?Thank you for your help.

Hello. I have a few questions about size.1. When I read an image with a bitmap, it becomes a square or approximate pixel size, and it is impossible to maintain the size ratio with the original image at all?2. Is it correct to recognize that if I enter the size of the original image in Physical Size, it will look square during substance work, but the size will completely return to its original size after output?3. Enter the physical size and open the exported image in photoshop, and the appearance will be the same as Substance Designer, but the canvas size will be a square according to the long side. Why is this? The Windows Photo Viewer is also rectangular in thumbnails, as is PhysicalSize, but when you actually open it, it is stretched to a square.I want to create a cloth texture from a single cloth photo. The first image I loaded was rectangular, but the size has changed to square. For the time being, the appearance is not right, but I clipped it with MultiCrop and made a natura

In the substance 3d designer manual it says to go to the menu bar, edit, keyboard shortcuts, but for some reason i don't see the "keyboard shortcuts" option. i'm using a mac Ventura. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I want to design a Macro color car. How to paint this car model?

Hi everyone, as you can see from the image I am trying to use a bitmap to get a texture in a tile shape.I was able to reach the result, the only thing is the diffuse, with which I am struggling, I really want the diffuse colour to be the same as the bit map but I can't find a way to do it, I would like not to use the gradient map, is there a way to have the diffuse colour to match with the grayscale values of the directional warp? Thank you in advance

Hi. Sorry if I'm missing something here, but I can "expose as new graph input" most parameters of nodes basically, but I don't seem to have the option to expose as new graph input for the random seed. Is there a way to do this that I am missing? I basically want to be able to change the random seed of multiple nodes at once.  Thanks for any help on this, and sorry if this is obvious.  Brian

Hi, I have Substance 3D Painter 2023 on steam and I'm wondering if its compatible with Substance 3D Designer 2024?Will I run into issues using materials created in Designer 2024 in Painter 2023?I don't want to pay €200 to find out the hard way and there doesn't seem to be a way to purchase Substance 3D Designer 2023 any more. Thanks!

Hi,I've likely missed something in the documentation or settings but hopefully someone can provide a solution. I have several graphs with dependencies between them. (Currently using only .sbs files to avoid .sbsar limitations.) If I have dependencies between graphs from different .sbs sources, they don't automatically update and propagate changes unless I reload the entire .sbs that has dependencies in it. Or restart substance designer completely.How can I force an update without going through a complete reload or restart?  Thanks
