I created a new part for a wall by copying one of the existing parts in Family Editor. The new wall has assigned a custom material (texture) for rendering but all other properties remained unchanged. Beside rendering I also need to create elevations views. When I create a dynamic view the face of the new wall is not hatched with a pattern, only edges are shown. I checked all the options in Family Editor but cannot find where patterns are defined. I only found an option for cut patterns but it's not what I am after.
I use OBD Upd8
Hi Rafal,
for things like brick and block patterns in elevation etc, we use the Geometry map property from the Rendering material. Have a look at the rendering material and see if their a a geometry map defined in the definition.
use an existing render material as a guide.

Thank you Brenden. I thought it might be defined somewhere in material properties but could not find it!
