I'm using ChineseFan.cfx on 3 picture layers. Only the first fan shows both sides, but the 2nd and 3rd fan only shows successfuly on one side. The 2nd side isn't showing image properly.
Am I using this CFX properly?
The 1st texture is used for the front, the 2nd for the back.
Maybe you are not using a 2nd texture.
You can set both textures in the MEDIA > CHANGE TEXTURE... dialog.

I definitely did add 2nd textures on fan 2 and fan 3. When i rotate fans 2 and 3 the other side shows a very faint image of texture 1.

Maybe your picture layer uses the SINGLE SIDED style (3rd dropdown below the textbox).
If this is the case, switch to FLAT.

Yay! that sorted it out. Thank you.
One more issue. Texture position on the fan effects both textures of the fan. If you adjust one side to fit then the other side will be out. Is there a way to sort that out?

Not in the current version, thank you for your feature request.
2 ideas for now:
-you can prepare the textures in a paint app
-realize that the front and back are never visible at the same time so you can secretly adjust the props during the switch
