v.12 to v.13 Custom Fills

Anonymous
Not applicable
We recently upgraded to ArchiCad 13 and while for the most part all is going smoothly I am noticing a few glitches. One is that in projects started in v.12 where we created custom fills, when opened in v.13 the custom fills no longer hold their scale. For example a 3"x6" subway tile pattern that worked great in v.12 is not to scale when opened in v.13. We have created many of these custom fills for use in our interior elevations as tile patterns, and now all are a mess. When I look at the fill properties everything is set correctly, but still they look wrong on plans and elevations. Any suggestions?
TIA

Kate:

A guess: has the Fill Construction Method been set to Distorted Fill?

Thanks David, that was a good guess but I checked that and that is not the problem. The fills are set to fixed not distorted. Oh well... I think I am going to be spending some time re-making my tile fills.

Just a guess: Is the Vectorial Hatching on for the On screen view options?
