Ive got a brick pattern on a curved wall (ONLY curved in plan) and it shows up great in 3d - but when I do a perspective it just comes out as shaded.
Ive tried increasing the size of the perspective - no change.....even odder is some of them show up on some sections of the wall, but not others (asll sections of wall are curved in plan) - anyone solved this problem

More notes: the brick pattern is working on some perspectives, but not others...dont know how! But my weatherboards are now not showing (horizontal lines) - even though their spacing is a lot less 'dense' than the brick pattern

I too have experienced this behaviour, but with flat walls and 'sand' fills.
Attached is the example file that I sent off to Autodesk the other week. It's a bit annoying to generate a nice looking perspective to have it flawed by the material/fill pattern not working properly.

I've raised this problem before as well. It's apparently a known issue and one we'll have to live with.
