Hello all,
After searching far and wide and plugging in a lot of different numbers, I cannot seem to figure out how to create a 4x16 tile pattern with a 1/3 step.
I'm super close as the tile is the correct size and I've got the 1/3 offset. However, it's appearing staggered instead of stepped. I'd appreciate some help!
*Block 4x16, 4 x 16 blocks 1/3 offset
;%TYPE=MODEL
90,0,0,0,-16,4,-4
90,5.28,4,0,-16,4,-4
0,0,0,0,4

You are pretty close
There are 3 main different ways to make this type of pattern:
You are attempting to write it using approach #2. Note that for PAT files, it does not matter file performance wise (size/speed) whether you do approach 1, 2 or 3. We've done extensive research into this, and there is no noticeable affect on file performance, size, or degradation in any other way when (as in your file) there are 2 lines vs 4 vs 6. Not even noticeable in 2 vs 40 vs 600.
For your #2 approach, try this PAT and see if it works: 4x16 with 1/3 Offset

Cheers! :geburtstagskuchen:
Forgot to mention...
:pfeil_nach_rechts_oben: This steps up and to the right.
:pfeil_nach_links_oben: But if you want it up and to the left...
Just add a negative sign before the 5.3 and 10.6 numbers (to make them negative x values), its the quickest solution.
Here is the efficient two-line solution

I am running into a similar issue. However I am trying to do a 12X24 Tile. I copied the 4x16 and attempted to modify it however I end up with the first vertical line every other tile instead of every 3rd. I am not sure what I am missing.

90, 8, 12, 0, 24, 12, -12

Hi Kyle, first time using Pattycake and I've successfully made my own tile pattern but now I don't know how to import it into Revit to use. Help pls.
