DADUDE Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi all, Vertical siding grooves only show in the Standard view format. How do I turn on the grooves in the other view formats. Design Dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 check you have textures toggled on in the other views , if that isn't it posting pics of the issue will help get you an answer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumbleChief Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hey Dude, The standard view uses a texture and the 'vector' views use a pattern. Go to the pattern tab and find one that works for your siding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumbleChief Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 My advice above blows. It's WAY too hard to find a pattern when vertical siding doesn't come with a pattern already spec'd. Please, someone tell me it's easier than this video shows. Here's the right way to do it. Here's the wrong way, but might be entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Larry, You almost got there. Open the Define Material dbx - easiest way is the rainbow tool. On the General panel, select strip. I think you got up to here correctly. Set Height to the board width (we will rotate pattern next). Go to the Pattern panel and set Angle to 90deg. Done. You only need to use the Pattern Source section for complicated patterns like paving, complex brick patterns etc. Simple patterns you can control with the Material Type (Strip).

Yea right, that's like saying Tiger Woods is going to get golf lessons from Charles Barkley.......... Well, come to think of it, the way Tiger is playing, lessons from Barkley could not hurt.
