--- name: Texture last_updated: 2026-06-10T23:09:12Z inherits: - Decal - FaceInstance - Instance - Object type: class memory_category: GraphicsTexture summary: "Applies a repeating image texture to the face of a parent BasePart." --- # Class: Texture > Applies a repeating image texture to the face of a parent [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md). ## Description A [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) object applies a repeating image texture to the face of a parent [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md). The affected face is dependent on the [Face](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) property. Unlike [Decals](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Decal.md), the texture applied by a [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) will repeat when the parent [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md) is resized, with the size of the repeating textures determined by the [StudsPerTileU](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) and [StudsPerTileV](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) properties. The applied image texture is determined by its [ColorMapContent](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) property. For details on how to upload images, see [asset management](/docs/en-us/projects/assets.md#asset-management). For more information, review [textures and decals](/docs/en-us/parts/textures-decals.md). See also: - [Decal](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Decal.md) for non-repeating surface images. - [MeshPart.TextureContent](/docs/reference/engine/classes/MeshPart.md) to apply an image texture to a [MeshPart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/MeshPart.md). - [SurfaceGui](/docs/reference/engine/classes/SurfaceGui.md) to apply an [ImageLabel](/docs/reference/engine/classes/ImageLabel.md) or [ImageButton](/docs/reference/engine/classes/ImageButton.md) to an in-experience 3D object. ## Properties ### Property: Texture.OffsetStudsU ```json { "type": "float", "access": "ReadWrite", "security": { "read": "None", "write": "None" }, "serialization": { "can_load": true, "can_save": true }, "thread_safety": "ReadSafe", "category": "Appearance", "capabilities": [ "Basic" ] } ``` This property determines how far the rendered texture is offset on the horizontal axis, in studs, as visualized [here](/docs/en-us/parts/textures-decals.md#offset-textures). See also [OffsetStudsV](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md). ### Property: Texture.OffsetStudsV ```json { "type": "float", "access": "ReadWrite", "security": { "read": "None", "write": "None" }, "serialization": { "can_load": true, "can_save": true }, "thread_safety": "ReadSafe", "category": "Appearance", "capabilities": [ "Basic" ] } ``` This property determines how far the rendered texture is offset on the vertical axis, in studs, as visualized [here](/docs/en-us/parts/textures-decals.md#offset-textures). See also [OffsetStudsU](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md). ### Property: Texture.StudsPerTileU ```json { "type": "float", "access": "ReadWrite", "security": { "read": "None", "write": "None" }, "serialization": { "can_load": true, "can_save": true }, "thread_safety": "ReadSafe", "category": "Appearance", "capabilities": [ "Basic" ] } ``` Sets the horizontal size, in studs, of the tiled image applied by the [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md). Larger values for this property will lead to the [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) appearing larger, and repeating less frequently. Unlike with [Decals](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Decal.md), the size of the repeated image is unaffected by the dimensions of the [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md). Instead, resizing the [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md) only increases the number of times the texture repeats. Note that this property can be set to very low values, but not zero. Also note that the horizontal/vertical distinction is relative to the parent [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md) axis; therefore the [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) will rotate along with the [BasePart](/docs/reference/engine/classes/BasePart.md). See also [StudsPerTileV](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md). ### Property: Texture.StudsPerTileV ```json { "type": "float", "access": "ReadWrite", "security": { "read": "None", "write": "None" }, "serialization": { "can_load": true, "can_save": true }, "thread_safety": "ReadSafe", "category": "Appearance", "capabilities": [ "Basic" ] } ``` Sets the vertical size, in studs, of the tiled image applied by the [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md). Larger values for this property will lead to the [Texture](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Texture.md) appearing larger, and repeating less frequently.
