Texture appears differently on slab to wall

Anonymous

Hi Everyone,
I don't know why it has taken so long, but here is my first cry for help on this forum!

As per the drawing, I have two 3D textures assigned to a slab edge & walls adjoining, however on the slab edges the textures size differently to the walls, so I can't align them.

The walls above are created on 2 stories & they align fine. As can be seen it is happening with two textures, my weatherboard AND a proprietary colorbond one. I'm on Arc 16. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Mark.

Hi Kevin

I've replicated it in AC17. Let me know if you need a module file.

I couldn't reproduce the problem from V17 so looks like its already fixed.
Try this:
1. Create rectangular Slab
2. Place Wall on top of Slab at edge
3. Select Slab, then command Align 3D Texture > Set Direction..., select top of slab and define angle numerically
4. The edge texture is distorted as well as the top texture, the edge texture cannot be reset without resetting the top texture (see the image in my earlier post)
