Herringbone tile pattern in X17

[Leadcarpo]

Hi ALL I am only a few weeks in to x17, and I am trying to figure out how to create a herringbone tile pattern, for a 12x24, but really, any size. Can anyone give me some advice? Thanks!

Have you had a look at the Herringbone Materials in the Library?

They have Herringbone Materials in both Flooring and Tile:  

 

Core Catalogs/Materials/Flooring/Wood Flooring/Herringbone

 

Bonus Catalogs/Materials Tiles Basics/Herringbone Tile

try the new tile builder in X17

Well, I wanted to create a custom tile for a project, and I did look at the material builder, I even asked Chat GPT, but I could not find anything that was herringbone specific in the dialogs of the tile builder. I am probably just dumb and missed it! I can accept that I may be dumb, so now I just need some help to figure it out, thanks!

Are you looking for the shape "Chevron" under the material builder?

It is not that you are "dumb", trust me we all feel that way as CA continues to improve and suddenly we need to learn a new tool.  It is no easy task to grasp the power and nuances of some of these cool tools unless you've got time to just play around, or your a savant like our beloved Rabbitt.

Once you figure it out, you'll be amazed at what you can do to improve the visual quality of your 3d models.
