Starting point of 2D-fills in elevations

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 01:07:00 GMT

I'm struggling with 2d-fills assigned in surface settings. I've a customized 2d-brick hatch for window jambs and also 3d-surface. In elevations they hatches are ok, but the starting point of the fill is project origo or something else. I want that 2d fill use the element origo or just defined by handle.

Is it possible to do that?

If the hatch is defined in a surface material used on an element then in the 3D window you can use the "Align 3D texture" command (Design menu).

If the hatch is on a surface material used in an object then you can control it in the script of that object (COOR command).

Thanks! I haven't thought that. Of course it follows the 3d-texture.
