Hi Guys,
I'm trying to create custom hatch pattern but i always got the pop up saying "no model pattern find"
here is my pattern.
;%UNITS=MM
;%VERSION=3.0
*Ceiling1, (2) 600 X 1200 (1)150 x 1200
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0,0, 0,1350
0, 0,1200, 1350,0
90, 0,0, 0,1200
90, 600,0, 0,1200
90, 1200,0, 0,1200
90, 1350,0, 0,1200
can you please help me figure this out.. thanks

You just need two lines for rectangular model hatch
try this
*ceiling 1200 x 600
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0, 0, 0, 1200
90, 0, 0, 0, 600
am not sure how to add another level to that.. but if you have a 2D hatch pattern
available which works, then just add
;%TYPE=MODEL
to hatch pat file...
try this..and modify accordingly
;%VERSION=3.0
;%UNITS=MM
* Ceiling
;%TYPE=MODEL
90,600,600,0,1200
90,300,300,0,1200
90,0,0,0,1200
0,0,0,0,600
there is a mistake in the 2nd line definition
;%VERSION=3.0
;%UNITS=MM
*Ceiling1 _ (2) 600 X 1200 (1)150 x 1200
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0,0, 0,1350
0, 0,1200, 0,1350
90, 0,0, 0,1200
90, 600,0, 0,1200
90, 1200,0, 0,1200
90, 1350,0, 0,1200
your hatch pattern is missing 2 digits from each line.
*edit*
take a look at this:
Try these out...
Revit 2017 file and pat file attached.
;%UNITS=MM *Ceiling,Ceiling Grid ;%TYPE=MODEL 0,0,1200,0,-1200,1350,0 0,0,0,0,-1200,1350,0 -90,0,1200,0,-1350,1200,0 -90,1350,1200,0,-1350,1200,0 -90,150,1200,0,-1350,1200,0 -90,750,1200,0,-1350,1200,0

Defining Revit fill patterns consisting entirely of unbroken lines such as this ceiling grid is not at all difficult
Open a text editor and put this at the top of a text file
;%VERSION=3.0
then for a pattern dimensioned in MM.
;%UNITS=MM
or, if dimensioned in inches
;%UNITS=INCHES
Then the pattern's name prefixed by an asterisk
*pattername
then, for a MODEL pattern add this one line.
;%TYPE=MODEL
then, for each line in the pattern, add a line containing five numbers separated by commas.
1. Angle from horizontal in degrees
2. X co-ordinate of a point on that line
3. Y co-ordinate of the same point
4. the number zero
5. line's spacing, measured perpendicular to line
Save the file with extension .PAT and load to Revit.
This is explained fully in the preamble to the standard pattern file Revit.pat distributed with Revit.
Note: the free HatchKit Add-In for Revit. graphically creates patterns consisting of multiple unbroken lines directly within Revit projects.
