Hi,

I'm working on exterior elevations and I want to show panels on my walls. I created a wall type that has panels as an exterior finish. Is there a way to manipulate the fill pattern so that I have control on where the panels should start and so on?

Thanks,

Terealva

Model patterns can be moved or aligned into position.

Drafting patterns do not have this option.

I assume that you have a pattern that looks like the panels you want.  Then in the view, just select one of the model lines and move it.  You can also use the align tool to line your pattern up with the edge of the wall, or anything else.

So, can I manipulate fill patterns if they are part of my wall types?

Sure.  Just try.  This is really important with masonry walls.  When you want your coursing to line up.  Ceiling grids work the same way.  Just get in there and move some hatch around, it won't bite.

Hover your mouse over one of the fill pattern lines in elevation or 3D, Use your TAB key until the line is highlighted.  You can now move this line or rotate it as necessary.
