Custom Tiled back-splash Brick Pattern

[DaveBox]

Hi all.

I am attempting to lay out wall tile in a Brick third pattern in X10.

I have captured the texture (new material 45) from a screen and applied it to the top custom back splash.

I have then copied the plan material and sized the texture (24x12) and the custom pattern.

It then renders in stacked tile pattern.

What am I doing wrong?

In order for us to see your material you need to include the texture source file. Common ways to do this is choose File/Backup Entire Plan/ with the active plan opened.

 

I'll show you a 2 row brick pattern to illustrate the solution:

There is no offset tool in CA, you must create the offset in your texture

Pattern:

12 x 24 1-3rd Offset.pat

 

Material for Library '''Import" as usual....

 

MHD_1-3rd 12 x124 Stacked Brown Tile.calibz                FOR X11 OR UP ONLY SORRY ,

                                                                                   use Pattern and Texture above to make your own material if needed.

Hi Kbird!

So the custom pattern does not array the tiles?

A third party is required?

I was hoping for a third pattern not a third party!

 

Also: What is my vector size?

1.) No , it is simply a line drawing for Vector Views.......

 

2.) No , but it's a whole lot easier with the free Excel File.....  see above.... I did it for you and made a new Chief material .....
