Question

Keeping a pattern going in the same direction

I am trying to place a pattern that runs vertically on a chair, using the fill, and it gets placed beautifully at the front, but on the sides and back, the pattern is placed horizontally!

Is there a way I can keep the pattern to be placed in the same direction (vertically!) all around the chair? 

(Also,  on this specific object, the pattern ends up on the legs too)

It can be done if each texture will be placed on separate selection and modified. The reason is UV mapping and depend how is object created.

Thanks. So it has to do with the object.

I got it from Adobe Stock as I don't create objects myself. The original pattern on the object was a stripe that was placed correctly.

I would go get another object but there aren't that many, so the choice is pretty poor.

You can use Magic Wand Tool for selecting separate parts of your object and place separate textures that will allow to modify them separately (if your object have separate layers).
