Texture Fill with boundary lines in elevation.

kimaa — Tue, 21 Jul 2026 07:09:18 GMT

hello, i've set my interior elevation at 'surface-texture fill, shaded'.

and when I publish the documents. there are boundary lines of texture.

How can I set the texture with no boundary?

Is this with the inbuilt publisher? Viewing in Acrobat? Are the seams visible at all zoom levels or do they flicker in and out? Are they visible if you open it in a web browser?

1. Publisher set properties > Publishing method : Save files(PDF)

2. Seams are visible at PDF Viewer and same when printed on paper.

Known issue. The visibility of the tiling of textures is a thing, depending on the viewer application and the current zoom level. For some it's more prominent than in others.

The reason boils down to float arithmetics and anti-aliasing.

It will not be visible in print.

The odd thing is that they say that is is visible when printed... Though given the GS plaster texture does not seem to have any seams, might it be a image to texture size scaling issue with the timber textures?

Timber texture problem. the dark wood texture is archicad's "Wood Walnut Vertical".

Alright, sorry to hear that happen in print even.

I tried the surface but for me everything looks good. Haven't tried printing it yet.

Can you maybe tell us more in which pdf viewer you used and which app for printing?

Did you publish your pdf or did you save it with the save command, or did you "fake print" it with pdf printer?

I just published your test elevation (using 29) and it all looks fine as a PDF opened with Acrobat reader.

Looks fine on screen but i am unable to print it on paper as I don't have access to a printer at the moment.

PDF file attached here.

Is this any different for you?

Barry.

Thanks. It's the PDF viewer problem I think. Another PDF viewer has no trouble like that as you described. Thanks again.

Hence why I had asked if you had opened it in a web browser...
