I have a little newbie issue I hope that someone can help me with.

Im trying to put at Png image (With only text and transparrent background) on a texturet object and isolate it for at specific area. I can make a texture with transparant background and mix textures but not put text on a texturet object without affecting the "base" color?

Some time ago I did a scene where I had to move a sticker over a cardboard cylindrical package. Here you go - use mix materials with the alpha image and the rgb image. For details I am uploading orbx - go to oxidizer group and play with transforms.

Hi,
for translating in c4d-octane of what smicha correctly suggest, you have to use a b&w version of your texture in the amount channel and modify the "border mode" option in order to disable the tiling of the texture.
