Hi there,

Is it possible to have no gap in one direction and a gap on the other?
For vertical siding I need to show vertical gaps, but not horizontals. See attached please.

Thank you.

Have you tried using Stack Bond or increase Tiles size and Offset?
Maybe this could help

It is possible to have a workaround by long tiles.

No, the gap size control is for both horizontal and vertical, there is no way to control them separately (unless you want to hack it and do it with tiling to prolong or shorten it, which is tricky).

You can use the custom pattern option and enter a crazy height value like 999.

Thanks. It's just that I need the separate boards for the different textures. I just don't want to have the gap vertically.

Thank you for your prompt answer.
I think the same applies. I actually need the separate boards but not the gap.

I'll add this as a feature request :)

Cheers.

Oh, I get it now. So basically what you would like is separate controls for gap width and height. (or vertical/horizontal)
