Stipple vectoral fill not rendering in perspectives?

See attached.
Basically, when I switch out the vectoral fill pattern in a surface material I created, the "stipple" in a sketch rendering wont render in.

I constantly have to keep switching out the a "Diagonal 1" line" fill pattern to make the center area of the design appear to be a darker "grey" painted color.

I'm rendering in "sketch mode" type technique.
The stipples fill (no matter how dense I try to make it) just wont render.
What could be happening here?

Maybe those points or strokes in the stipple fill pattern are just too small for the Sketch Rendering Engine to consider them large enough to display.

hum....good point (no pun intended).
Ok, so what I'll do then is create my own fill which has short lines instead of points....more like "scratches" on the wall.
I'll put the short (perhaps 1" long lines) very close together to see if the pattern shows up on the rendering sketch.

Thanks Lasz.
