Material Direction Rotated in Wrong Direction

[jcortelyou]

Regardless of how I make a new material it keeps importing rotated. I made sure north is correct and survey point/project locations are correct. Something is getting screwed up and only way i can change is to rotate the material texture, otherwise they will all default at this angle.

Any ideas?

All you need to do is switch to a shaded or hidden line view so you can see the surface hatch pattern, then tab select one of the hatch lines and rotate to the angle you want. See this video (https://www.google.com/search?q=ROTATE+material+texture+in+revit&rlz=1C1OKWM_enCA947CA948&oq=ROTATE+material+texture+in+revit&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i160j33i22i29i30.11754j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=_p-Z7YuPyK9PbtQaJibSgCw23) showing the process.

You need to associate a Model Hatch with the material. This will allow you to rotate the material to a specific orientation. You cannot rotate Drafting Hatches. You'll probably also need to break up your floors (numerous ways to do this) in order to align the material (wood planks) with the hallway versus a narrow room.
