Brick and mortar hatching nightmare

Recommended Posts

Hi I am trying to create a specific hatch for bricks and mortar. I have no problem creating the standard brick hatch but when I try to put mortar around the bricks that is when I get unstuck!

 

my horizontal lines and spaces appear to be okay but my vertical lines are all over the place, very confusing!!:?

 

I have attached my workings (have not yet got to the 4th line of code though!)if anyone can see anything that may help I would very much appreciate it!!!!

I think you had the repeat spacing and the dash space not correct. This seems to work.

 

*MYBRICK, Custom brick and mortar
0, 0,0, 110,70, 215,-5
0, 0,65, 110,70, 215,-5
90, 0,0, 70,110, 65,-75
90, 215,0, 70,110, 65,-75

 

If you want to use it as a standalone file, then choose a shorter heading, which MUST be the same as the name of the file. If you add it to acad.pat or acadiso.pat, then you might loose it when you update.
