Texure (position) different between 2 objects

Hi All
I have the same material/texture on two objects - a default cube and a copy of it - but the textures appear to be different between them.
I’ve tried using Global and Local 3D mapping but I’m still getting the issue.
Thank you

Local mapping is correct.
But your two cubes have the exact same transformation in world space, as can be seen in the N-panel on the right.
Center their origins into the middle of each cube to give each cube a different transformation.

BYOB
Many thanks - that's fixed it and I now have a better understanding of how geometry origins work.
Cheers

You can imagine that the origin is the "anchor" of the texture if you use local mapping. If you move or rotate the origin, the texture is moved/rotated.
