I am having some difficulty getting the surface patterns on my exterior walls to show properly.  It seems that some of the time the pattern will display upside-down making it impossible for me to align it with the pattern on the adjacent walls.  does anyone know how to fix this?

I also cannot adjust the surface patterns on curved walls.  Is it even possible?

Are you talking about fill patterns or render appearance?

Fill patterns can be drafting or model - it is up to you and what you assign.    Drafting patterns can not be aligned or change orientation but model patterns can.

 

To adjust on a curve - add a temporary straight wall area and join it ... adjust the pattern on an elevation normal with that straight section then delete the straight section.

I am refering strictly to model, surface patterns in the shading with edges mode.  So yes,  fill patterns.

Aaron,

 

NOTE::::  You have to assign a model hatch!  You obviously havenot done that if you can not adjust it.

It is a model hatch and I can adjust it, however on some of the walls the pattern is upside-down.

If its a model hatch, you should be able to rotate the hatch just like you would align or move it (had a similar problem just this week).  just select one of the pattern lines and use the rotate command.  Don't know why its upside down on some of them.

Wow that is wonderful.  Thank you so much.  I did not know you could do that.
