Christina_Girerd Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Why does a slab material have the top face 45 degrees off from the sides? I was applying a running bond block material and was surprised that it looks incorrect. Then I noticed that when I opened the Define Material dbx, the preview showed correctly. I then tried applying it to a polyline solid and it showed correctly. Is there any reason the slab should show the material differently or is this a bug? The last image shows the slab on the left and the polyline solid on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I guess it really would not make a difference if it was a "concrete" slab but you may have found an exploitable feature. Unfortunately not quite suitable for your current project though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina_Girerd Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 I just tried turning the supposedly correct looking polyline solid 45 degrees, and now that is messed up in the same way. So it seems the problem occurs when I turn the slab OR the polyline solid any non- right angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Huh... Solid or Symbol would be the solution I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina_Girerd Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 I duplicated the material, adjusted the angle and put a thin layer on top of the large block to get it to look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
