  Decal mapping is a feature of SAP Visual Enterprise Author (CA-VE-VEA) that allows users to apply decals to 3D models. Decals are images or textures that can be applied to the surface of a 3D model, such as logos, labels, or other graphics. Decal mapping allows users to quickly and easily add these images to their 3D models.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use decal mapping in SAP Visual Enterprise Author, users must first create a decal image file. This file should be saved in a supported image format, such as PNG or JPEG. Once the image is created, it can be imported into SAP Visual Enterprise Author and applied to the 3D model. The decal can then be adjusted and manipulated using the software’s tools.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a decal image file for use in SAP Visual Enterprise Author, it is important to make sure that the image is of high quality and resolution. Low-resolution images may appear pixelated when applied to the 3D model. Additionally, it is important to make sure that the image is properly sized for the 3D model; if the image is too large or too small, it may not fit properly on the model.
