I am using the "out of the box" OSB content.  I get a rotated hatch when I draw the osb horizontal vs vertical.  How can I get the hatch to rotate with the content.

I tried aligning the hatch, but it does not select with tab.

I have tried checking the box in the content for rotate with component, but it does nothing.  This is a family parameter.

HELP.

Is that hatch a "Drafting" or "Model" pattern?

It is a drafting hatch.  The family is the standard Revit OSB content that ships with the box.  See attached unchanged version.

That's why you can't select those lines with the TAB key, only with "Model" pattern you can do that.

So are you saying I need to change the hatch to model and it will work.  I'll try it.

Decided this was silly and wasting a lot of time.  Decided to just go with a poche so I did't have to mess with this.  You would expect out of the box content to work right when rotated.  Just one more thing to get frustrated at.
