Hi all,

I created a .PAT file for a custom pattern- trouble is, it looks right on a flat wall, but not on a curved wall. (shh--- don't tell anyone, but it also looks correct in autocad).

I have no idea what to do.

Any ideas?

It looks right to me. Flat on the flat wall and curved on the curved wall. If your intent is to have it "flat" to the view on both walls - then use a drafting pattern - not a model pattern.

The curving look is what I want. The problem is that the place where the diagonals cross each other is not where the horizontals and verticals cross.

Ah. Then I would say that the first thing would be to see how the hatch is configured. There may be some numbers that when exagerated are rounding off. Otherwise, I think you would need to check with support.

You are correct- thanks.
