  1. I have every time I change the vertical offset but I'll copy yours even though It's still not showing up correctly.
  2. Yes. And that is what you see in my first screenshot at right in the Library. Am I making it more difficult?
  3. I'll be very interested to hear what you find out and not surprised at my ineptness or not! tile.calibz
  4. Well that is just too damn much trouble — experimented with all kinds of numbers but didn't ever get it to move to the right place. Sometimes I wish we physically drew again and this wasn't a necessary "time saver" evil! At least I knew what to do then to get what I wanted. Thanks for attempts.
  5. Ok I get it and will experiment. Just lower the tiles by the offset to get them where I want. Thanks again DzinEye!
  6. Could you give me a clue so I know why I'm doing what I do? I'm looking up "offset" but don't understand the term in regards to the pattern looking upside down to me.
  7. For the hell of it, I rotated it 180 and it still looks incorrect.
  8. Yes it rotates. if it looks the way I want it to in the Plan Materials box, how do I know how to rotate it or what offset to enter?
  9. Ignore previous 2 entries. I'm looking at how to edit and hope it helps!
  10. I don't understand your suggestion Alaska?
  11. How do I open the Define material again?
  12. X12 iMac Mojave Anyone know why my material may be coming in upside down — notice in screenshot that it is correct in Library. Also making extra tile rows that are not in my jpg exported from Adobe ID. I have unchecked Retain Aspect ratio and input exact size of wall that tile goes on in tub area. Also did that in ID creating image at same size as wall. For clarification, gold tile meant to sit at tub with diagonal decos and off whites going to the ceiling.
  13. Your avatar (solver — is that the right term?) is perfect! Thank you!
  14. Oh maybe it's a scale issue — just looked at it and see that it isn't correct which looks to be what you are suggesting.
  15. How do I get to where I can edit the imported texture? Or do I just need to import again? I have attempted to make signature numerous times and nothing shows up on my entry so that's why I said I give up.
  16. Oh jeez! Does it ever get easier? So if anyone is still in the mood to help, see how in the screenshot the image in the Library isn't the same as what was painted on the backsplash? I made it 19" high in InDesignIsecond screenshot) so why isn't it correlating appropriately? What have I done now? Do I have to do it one by one in CA?
  17. Thank you all for your help! Visuals are the name of the game — she didn't like the randomness of the pattern and couldn't see it until it was larger and in the Kitchen. Viola! Chief Talk and you all are my saviours!
  18. Thank you! i just sent a text to my client asking if she likes it because I don't want to go any further if she doesn't!
  19. As per usual, my ignorance may prevail; however, will I be able to "cut" tiles in the backsplash as needed? I have my pattern set in ID but need to make it so that I can join the pattern as necessary. I'm liking the way my pattern is showing up with clear tile images since I took them from photos rather than screenshots.
  20. I have a pattern but it is not seamless. So all I know to do is make other collections in InDesign so that I can make the tiles match (ie. pattern shown won't match in the corner now).
  21. Thanks robdyck! What you've shown creates a symmetrical repeat which I don't want. I seem to always complicate things automatically!
  22. Yes! How did you get an image of the icon? So my tiles are jpegs and I gather they need to be something different? Oh yes, I see in my other client file that they were PDF's. So I'm making a backspl. with grout in Adobe InDesign. I'm going to check out now so I can walk my dog. I'll be back at it tomorrow and give a report. You all are awesome and I have to say, though I get super frustrated, this is much better than VectorWorks! thank you ,thank you, thank you!
  23. Love the baby face! So just send his plan back with my images in it? At the moment, I don't have the tiles in the browser because I didn't bring them in @ 45º.
