    Need patterns (fills) for driveway, terrace work

    Flagstone, rectilinear patterns, all the kind of stuff done on stamped concrete.

    Any ideas?

    Gene,

    There are already heaps in Chief.
    Have you seen them?

    Go to the Fill Style tab.
    In the Fill Pattern drop down box, select Custom (it's hidden away at the bottom of the list).
    Go Custom Pattern...Browse.
    Have a look at these sorts of files:
    C:\Program Files\Chief Architect\Chief Architect Premier X5 (64 bit)\Patterns\ChiefPave.pat.
    C:\Program Files\Chief Architect\Chief Architect Premier X5 (64 bit)\Patterns\ChiefStone.pat
    Cultured Stone also have some - not sure if they cam with Chief or I got them elsewhere - I can send them to you if you like.
    C:\Program Files\Chief Architect\Chief Architect Premier X5 (64 bit)\Patterns\ChiefStone.pat (and others).

    You can scroll through all the patterns in that one file with the drop down box.

    You may already know about the above, if so, ignore.

    Very good to know actually.

    I have a bunch of hatches in Vectorworks I want to bring into Chief. I wish Chief worked more with hatches, but I think I can export from Vectorworks (hatch) into a pattern file.

    I've shared this before - here's a pdf that shows each out of the box hatch pattern in Chief.
