I have a randomized pattern on a CMU wall, and I'm not sure the best way to do this. I have attached a picture to show the pattern I am trying to accomplish. To create the pattern so far I have just used filled regions. Is there a better way? If not, is their a way so that my light fixtures and model text will not be covered. Even when I send the filled region to the back it still covers those models. Thanks for any help.

You are doing it the only way I can think of except I would use a transparent hatch. Hatches are 2D so they over-ride all model elements.

You might also consider using the split face function and create three different blockwork finishes. If you do this it will also render correctly.

Yes, WW, if you don't need to render transparent hatches would be faster if you only need to see it in one view. Another advantage of the split face is that it would also display in unrendered 3D views.

I see the split face function on the modify tab, but not sure how to use it well enough to generate what I am looking for. Good idea though, No real need to render at this point.... Not sure how long that would take me either. Doing the regions took me about 2 hours to do all elevations.
