I'm looking for a way to pattern solid sections automatically. I have seen a past post about this using element templates. However, I would like the pattern to also follow the direction of the longest side of the element.
For example, I have a cabinet that the core is made of plywood, I want the plywood pattern for the horizontal to follow that orientation and if it is vertical follow that orientation. But there are cases where the part is at an angle. In this case, I want it to follow the longest side of the element. I guess you would call this relative angle like a custom line style.
Ann trick for doing this?
Might be worth providing details of the software and version being used. It would also be helpful if you could provide example files, screen captures etc. to assist with the explanation of your issue.
