Setting Hardscape Pattern Options

The Vectorworks Landmark program offers a variety of hardscape pattern options from the Hardscape Object Settings dialog box (see Creating Hardscape Objects). To set the pattern option for the main hardscape area, select the Joint Pattern from the Definition area of the dialog box and set the options.

The joint pattern origin is editable and has a control point marked with a red locus for identification.

Setting Joint Pattern Options

If Flagstone, Pavers-Grid, or Pavers-Running is selected, the Set Joint Pattern Options dialog box opens. Set the parameters and click OK.

Setting Radial Pattern Options

If Pavers-Radial is selected (Boundary Configuration required), the Set Radial Pattern Options dialog box opens. Set the parameters and click OK.

Radial pavers can be used with any shape hardscape that has a Boundary Configuration. The hardscape boundary clips the circular pattern to fit.

Setting a Hatch, Stipple or Tile

  1. To set a pattern from a hatch, stipple, or tile rather than from a hardscape pattern resource, select the resource type.

  2. The Choose Fill dialog box opens.

  3. Click Pick a Resource to access the resource list. The files and folders available in the current document and in the libraries are listed on the left. Select a file to display thumbnails of the hatch/stipple/tile resources available in that location, and select the desired resource.

  4. Click OK.

The selected resource’s name displays beneath the Joint Pattern list.
