In this article, we will explain how to set up the layouts for four different product types—wallpapers, murals, decals, and wall borders—when importing them into Wizart PIM. Each product type has specific properties that affect how they will be visualized in Wizart Visualizer or through the Visualizer API. Understanding how to configure these properties ensures that your products are displayed correctly on surfaces.
Important Note on Pattern Dimensions
When setting up layouts for any of the product types mentioned in this article, it is essential to provide the correct pattern_width and pattern_length in the import file. These parameters are required for accurate scaling during rendering:
pattern_width: The real-world width of the texture in meters.
pattern_length: The real-world length of the texture in meters.
These dimensions ensure that the textures are correctly scaled and displayed on surfaces. Incorrect or missing values may result in unrealistic visualization of the product.
Wallpaper Layouts
When importing wallpapers, the following options are available for configuring how the wallpaper pattern is applied to surfaces. If no additional values are provided, the wallpaper will default to a no_offset pattern, and the uploaded texture image will be repeated until it covers the entire surface.
reverse: This option determines if each subsequent tile is rotated 180 degrees.
Possible values:
yesorno(default isno)Example: Setting
reversetoyeswill alternate the orientation of each wallpaper tile.
pattern_offset: Specifies how much the next tile must be shifted vertically to align the pattern properly.
Numeric value in meters
If the wallpaper has a straight or random match, leave this field empty or set it to
0.Example: Entering
0.5shifts the next tile by 0.5 meters for proper pattern alignment.
Wall Mural Layouts
For wall murals, you need to configure two parameters that define how the mural is positioned and scaled on the wall.
repeatable: Indicates if the mural should be repeated horizontally.
Possible values:
yesorno
customized_size: Determines if the mural should be scaled to fit the wall height and width proportionally.
Possible values:
yesorno
Cases:
repeatable=Yes, customized_size=No
The mural is overlaid from the upper-left corner with horizontal repetition. Vertically, it repeats based on the texture's length.repeatable=Yes, customized_size=Yes
The mural is overlaid from the upper-left corner, scaled to the wall height, and repeated horizontally. The texture's width is scaled proportionally to the height.repeatable=No, customized_size=No
The mural is placed in the center of the wall, with no scaling or repetition.repeatable = No, customized_size = Yes
The mural overlays from the upper left corner. The texture is scaled to fit the size of the larger wall, without any horizontal repetition. Any part of the texture that extends beyond the wall is cut off.
Wall Decal Layouts
Wall decals have only one configuration parameter, making their setup simple.
repeatable: Determines if the decal is repeated or not.
Possible values:
yesornorepeatable=No
The decal is applied to the center of the surface with no repetition.repeatable=Yes
The decal is scaled to the wall height and repeated horizontally across the surface.
Wall Border Layouts
Wall borders are straightforward in how they are applied. They are always repeated horizontally at the center of the wall.
Wall borders do not have customizable parameters for layouts.
Visualizing Your Layouts
By correctly setting the layout parameters for your wallpapers, murals, decals, and wall borders, you ensure that they will be visualized as intended when applied to walls in Wizart Visualizer or through the Visualizer API. Keep in mind that these parameters control not just the placement of the materials but also their scale and repetition, which can dramatically affect the visual outcome.
