Default shader - how to stretch?

So I made a texture for an object by "Colour image" option of the default shader.

I would like to stretch it laterally, but can't find a good way to do it. I tried putting "Transform input shader" between an object part and the default shader. "World space" on and "world space" off, but to no avail. How can I change the "tiling" then?

Use an Image Map Shader as the Colour Function and you get a lot more control.

If the UV is right, then stretching the texture itself (Photoshop) is the best option. World space is no option for the blades, you could use that for the stems, if they are pure vertical.
Or use a pf with stretched Z (I believe), not world space.
Or use mine  ;)

It doesn't work either way. Image shader, while an evident solution, causes even more problems, generating some wild, inexplicable texturing regardless of the plane employed.

Luckily, it can be done in XFrog, so I guess I'll stick to it.

Did you try a transform on your image map? But yes, it's definitely best to do this with the object natively, especially the images. No reason for any of this if it's not proc.

Transform, oddly enough, didn't work. It must be what Ulco said. But I somehow thought this is the key for such issues.
