Adding Custom Textures to Material Library doesn't work as expected

[ChiefUserBPG]

I am trying to create custom textures, and have followed the steps in this article:

https://www.homedesignersoftware.com/support/article/KB-01202/importing-and-creating-custom-library-materials.html and also in the Reference Manual.  I am using HDPro 2022.  I have .jpg images from Cambridge Pavers, like this one:

 

I have saved them in `C:\Users\Brian\Documents\Home Designer Pro 2022 Data\Textures`.  But when I first tried to use them they were white, I played with some settings and used "Set Using Texture" under Material Color in the Texture Panel, as shown here:

 

That gave me the color I was looking for (or close enough), but just a color - arrow #1 below.  Then in the Pattern Panel, I selected a Pattern Type from the Library and I got arrow #2 below:

 

Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated!

How's this for a question:
"I would like to use a .jpg for the texture in the 3D rendering of my design of a retaining wall, but the instructions provided didn't work, has anyone else experienced this?  Is there a better post with instructions?"

 

Thanks!

Solved!

 

It was not a problem with creating a Custom Material in the Library it was how it was rendering.  I played with some settings and went to 3D -> Rendering Techniques and it was set to 

Vector View, when I changed it to Standard View it displayed as expected:

 

 

 

 

If anyone from Chief is monitoring, this article should be updated (there are already about 6 "notes"):
