Hey @Anonymous 

Here ya go: https://pattycake.io/pat/YlRY9e4wveQ

This one was written by hand, you can learn more how to do that through this tutorial we put together.

However, you can also use this one: https://pattycake.io/pat/Yll1WNdrWGG

This was made (much) easier by just drawing it in our draw in web - you don't need to 'understand' the PAT syntax at all.

Both will function the exact same in revit. We've tested this thoroughly --- there is no performance difference/degradation in PAT files of this size (generally you are safe up into hundreds of lines before any issue shows up - and it has more to do with density of the PAT and tolerance/precision than # of lines).

The equivalent and equally efficient pattern is directly available on filling in block size and offset as shown in the attachment:

I am trying to create a custom hatch for a staggered, woodplank, random looking hatch.

I need it in 1220 x 230mm.

I tried to adjust this 100 x 800 pattern. But just don't get it to work. I even asked chatgpt, but it couldn't figure it out either. Can someone please assist?

;%UNITS=MM
*100 x 800mm Wood Board, Wood: Wide boards
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0, 20, 0, 100
90, 0, 20, 200, 200, 100, -700
90, 400, 120, 200, 200, 100, -700

How can I get this wood board look in 1220 x 230mm?
