i am importing simple shapes into Revit from Rhino4 and when i render the shapes in brick they are rendering sideways and the bricks are too small. I have tried scaling the model down and changing the brick jpeg but it still is too small and since i am importing the model their are no hatch patterns in elevation that i can rotate to fix the brick coming in sideways. thanks in advance for any help,

So you are adding a brick material to the shapes?

yes, i am just applying the brick to the shapes and i have tried making the brick jpeg bigger and smaller but it doesnt affect the scale that its applied. If i have to rebuild the shapes in revit i can but it would be tough to build it at a scale small enough to show the brick properly.

Go to the Manage tab, and hit the Materials button.  Browse to the brick material, hit the Apearance tab.  CLICK on the image.  Not the cube--the rectangle englargement of it.  This is the texture editor, and you can rotate the image, and resize the scale at which revit repeats the image.
