Question: Revit .pat Hatch Help, 4x12 block pattern

[Anonymous]

Hey, trying to create a simple 4x12 staggered (1/2) block pattern, but can't figure out this code.  This is what I have so far:

*Block 4x12, 4 x 12 blocks running bond
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0, 0, 0, 4
90, 0, 0, 6, 4, 4, -4

Could somebody post a solution and possibly explain their second row to me digit by digit?  It's throwing me for a loop why some of these work.

Try

*Block 4x12, 4 x 12 blocks running bond
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0, 0, 0, 4
90, 0, 0, 4, 6, 4, -4

Docco on custom pattern specification:

Note that dX is always along each pattern line and dY is perpendicular to it -  you had them swapped.

what's the code for this running bond pattern but with the block being 12" tall and 4" wide?
