![]() ![]() Here's the glitch: once you rotate it, you won't be able to stretch it to fit the orthagonally projected elevation view to fill out the roof. Here is how you might do it in DataCAD 14: Hatch the pattern, and then rotate it to the required angle (whether to actual roof slope or a slope that isn't accurate but graphically looks good) using 3D rotate, on the X axis in your case. I realize this feature probably only works in 16, but you could try enlarging the symbol in the X direction only in previous versions. It also works on roof hatch patterns for different pitches (changing the Y scale only instead). Viola! Now the hatch pattern appears to be scaled in the X direction only. Then, open the symbol properties and change the X scale to 0.7071068 (inverse of square root of 2). ![]() ![]() Check the hatch scale and reset if needed because enlargements tend to change them. Open the symbol for editing and enlarge them by the insertion point to a factor of 1.4142140 (square root of 2) in the X direction only. Then Paste as Symbol (Ctrl + Sht + V) back to the same spot. So, I hatched the faces i needed with normal brick, then Clipboard Select > Cut them out. To make use the same hatch pattern and make it scaled to 0.7071068 x the scale in the X direction only is currently not available in the hatching. I needed some brick to look like it was set on a 45° wall on my elevations.
