[vtkusers] Two or more .jpg textures mapped to a Polydata

[Wes Turner]

Godofredo,

To my knowledge, there is no simple way to do what you want.

1 - For mapping a texture to part of an image, the easiest course is to turn
mirroring off on the texture so that instead of replicating the image, the
texturer extends the boundary of the image to the rest of the plane.  Then
put a one pixel border around your texture jpegs that is the background
color you desire on the untextured regions of the part.  This one pixel
border will then be the only color replicated.  I don't remember the
specific calls, but some combination of calls to the actor and texturer
should handle the first question, while creating the boundary can be managed
through the image pad filters.

2 - You are limited by one texture per actor.  To use multiple textures with
an actor, you will need to either synthesize your multiple textures into
one, or divide your single actor into multiples.

A first attempt at this is:
