Ok, have a bit patience with me, I try to understand that ...

I guess, you want me to do as following: translating the sphere +0.5, so
that not the sphere is centered, but the image will be centered over the
nose, it extends from the nose in both, -x and +x, directions. And really,

and rotating the image, I (seem to) have no control over the image,
especially when scaling it smaller than 0.5 it does not behave as expected.


have total control over the size and position of the image, but how ?

Thanks

R.
