Hi,

I'm pretty new to revit, so this might be a very basic quesion - I just can't seem to find the answer anywhere...
When I'm rendering in Revit Architecture, the materials on my floors goes in different directions, even though they are supposed to go in the same direction, because it's the same floor-"material"/family, that is aplied to all of them...

Does anyone know how to control the surface like that?

Best regards,

Esben S. Jensen

Inside the Materials dialog box go to the material you need and select the "Rendering Appearance tab.

now on the bottom right you will see the imagine of the material and some more options along with Rotate(which you will need to use it seems)

Cheers!

You might also try adding a surface pattern to that particular material (just to align the material). That way you can adjust the alignment under "rendered appearances", then make sure that the pattern is going the same direction (in plan) for each of your steps.

This will ensure that the pattern is going in the direction that you want it to. ???
