Can someone give me some guidance on how to- bring an s-tile roofing pattern into my material library (at the proper scale). I would like to apply this pattern to my basic generic roof -4" structure for my drawing elevations.
Also wondering how to apply this pattern to a mass. I have a conical roof over the entry that is drawn as a mass. How do I apply this s-tile pattern to it?
Thank You

Can you post your .pat file?

I have these 3, (attached), in my backup files but since I can't remember how to import them into a project, I can't view them. Seems like I had some pretty funky ones before and 1 good one. Can't remember which is which.

Manage Tab.....Additional Settings....Fill Patterns

Select New

Now...if they are Autocad patterns you need to go in and modify them to specify if they are model or drafting. Directions for this is your revit.pat

Very much appreciated all.
I got the barrel_Roof_Tile to look ok. All I need now is how to apply this pattern to my conical roof mass over the entry.
Thanks Again
