Orientation pattern type

[Anonymous]

Hello, 

where the command to put the import pattern with dirrerent orientation?

For basic there is orientation, for custom no..

Thank's

The custom pattern is a pattern made out of revit and loaded to it as it is.

so in case you want to rotate it, load it rotated.

If you are asking because your hatch seems rotated in view, just orbit the view and you will notice that the hatch will change its orientation while orbiting.

Also look at the roof plan and you will find that your hatch is ok.

That stone pattern is a drafting pattern so you cannot rotate it. You need a similar model pattern.

1) I've taken the pattern  just from that site. 

How can a recognize what I'm choose is a drafting pattern.

And which is not?

2) I try with some titles .pat. 

Why if I put 0.2 scale is visible only from 1 side and when i put 0.1 scale is no visible?

When i do render there's something visible?

Thank's.

@MostafaElashmawy  which program can I use to open .pat file?

I download Gimp but don't open file.

Any text editor.

Right click on the file

Open with

Notepad

When you open the pat file with Notepad and see %%Model then it is a model pattern. Or try to create a model pattern in revit with that pat and if revit tells you no model pattern found then it is not. For your project, try these, some are model patterns:

@ToanDN  is this what you talk about?

"no drafting" type patttern found?

However about the scale on message 5?

0.1 no visible, 0.2 yes?

Thank's

You need to check the Model, not Drafting button in the pattern Type option when creating it in Revit. Right at the top of your screenshot.
