pat File - Hexagon

I am trying to create a custom pat file and not having luck. It is a stretched hexagon. I started with a honeycomb pat file that I found on revitforum, but now I need something more accurate. I tried writing my own, but it tells me no pattern found. I  have attached my file so far, as well as an image of my desired shape (custom tile). I don't know why pat files confuse my brain so much.

 

Thanks!

There are only three segments because the template arrangement can be skewed rather than rectangular.

Hey! Great pat file. Works like a charm. I tried to recreate it for a symetrical hexagon with 12.5sm side, but I couldn.t figure out how you got the numbers in red, so I couldn't calculate them in my case. Could you help out and explain how to get the needed numbers? Thanks a lot.hexagon.jpgpat file.jpg

The regular hexagon pattern HONEY in ACAD.PAT could do the job for you. 

 

*HONEY, Honeycomb pattern
0, 0,0, .1875,.108253175, .125,-.25
120, 0,0, .1875,.108253175, .125,-.25
60, 0,0, .1875,.108253175, -.25,.125

 

Scale all numbers on each line (apart from the first number - the angle)  to suit.

It worked. Thanks!

Do you generate them automaticaly and is there a free software that does that from a drawing, or you have to do the calculations yourself?

Hatchkit automatically generates the pattern from a drawing.

 

You can try that out by running our demonstration version available here.

 

The full version however is not free.

 

 

best,

Hugh

Can someone make this a hatch? I have figured out everything but the delta x,y for the 30 degree lines, I can't figure out.

This nested fill uses a 70 deg bevel at either end of a 5.5" x 3" tile.

This pattern consists of 3 elements on a skewed arrangement whereas a rectangular arrangement would require 6 elements.

hugha,

Thanks so much. It works perfectly! I just couldn't figure out the x and y offsets.

Sorry not getting how you get some of the numbers, can you explain it a little more? I have a tile pattern the designer wants in the file. It is 8" tall x 6" wide but in a hexagon pattern angle is 63.43495.

 

Don't understand how you obtained these values 39.2894068625,0,0,257.375981862,-1.2664755805,14.213,-341.103760089

Happy to:

 

  1. Open a HatchKit Editor.
  2. Set a 2" grid with GridSnap on
  3. Snap lines from 0,0 to 2,4, then to 4,4, then to 6,0
  4. Set arrangement vectors from 0,0 to 4,4 and from 0,0 to 6,0
  5. Name and Save.

The posted pattern is wrong - blaming my new glasses :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht:

Hello,

Has anyone got a .pat file for the regular honeycomb pattern ? I've been trying to find it for the past 30 minutes but no luck. I don't understand why it's not implemented in Revit in the first place.

I've tried adding the acad.pat file and other honeycomb.pat files from RevitCity but I ALWAYS get this error message : "IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND PATTERN TYPE MODEL"

 

a65zd4dz.PNG

Please help me thanks.

EDIT : For future reference, this is the text in the pat file that doesn't work :

 

;%UNITS=MM
;%VERSION=3.0

*HONEY, Honeycomb pattern
0, 0, 0, 1.875, 1.0825317547305483084546539634412, 1.25, -2.5
120, 0, 0, 1.875, 1.0825317547305483084546539634412, 1.25, -2.5
60, 0, 0, 1.875, 1.0825317547305483084546539634412, -2.5, 1.25

And the pat files that are found in the solution work for Revit 2019 but I don't want that specific pat file I'm searching for the regular hexagon pattern.

try this, what you need to make the pattern recognised as a MODEL pattern is the highlighted line immediately following the pattern name:

which by eliminating elements that overlay halves the pattern "weight".

 

This result cannot be obtained by generators requiring a rectangular arrangement of the pattern template.
