How to Rotate end and edge grain

[misterrogers]

Hi all, does anyone know the proper way to add wood grain to this geometry so that it looks natural and makes sense?  (KS9pro)

thank you in advance.

Please disregard, I think I figured it out. i changed the Texture to Texture Map  (previously on Texture - legacy).

Then I changed the axis tilt to 90º. 

Is this the correct way?
