How to project a texture on the SpatialMap?

in Questions And Answers

I'm trying to get the Unity Projector to project a texture on to the world spatial map. I've changed up materials on the Spatial map to make sure it wasn't an issue with alpha/occlusion. Any ideas?

    @cpeter,
    I have not used the Projector before, but the Unity documentation calls out that you need to use a special shader for it to work and set the texture's material of the projector to 'clamp':
    https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-Projector.html

    Have you tried loading a captured room file into Unity and testing the Projector within the editor? Does it work in the editor but not on HoloLens?

    If you're running with our recommended quality settings (Fastest), then shadows are turned off by default. Lighting and shadows are expensive to run on the HoloLens, along with post-processing camera effects that you'll find in Unity's standard assets folder. The Terrain system is usually too expensive to run on HoloLens, and Projector might suffer from the same limitations.
