How do I repeat a ramp pattern on an object using the texture node?

You're very welcome, bench-sport!

If there is any question, please let me know. Note: Nov 28th is a (US) Holiday here and I will be off-line.

My best wishes for your project

Hi bench-sport,

There is some improvement in this, with the 2026.2 UV Context Projection.
Example
CV4_2026_drs_25_RStr_01.c4d

As before, the ramp produces only a Square; when rotated, this shows the borders, hence the settings in the Node for this use.

All the best

@Dr-Sassi Wow! This UV Context Projection node is incredible! It's just the missing piece of the puzzle. I checked your file. Now, the MUL and MOD node isn't needed. That one context projection node is enough to do the work I guess!

Hi bench-sport,

Thank you very much for the feedback.

You are spot on, and thanks for this insight.
I was in the middle of QA and timestamping the news video, when this theme came up – I started thinking about your question.
So, I checked it quickly, missing the extra advantage; I have a win as well, thank you!

Have a great weekend.

@Dr-Sassi Thanks a lot for this! Life is easier now.

@Dr-Sassi Btw, I can't figure out How to do it for ring type outputs without using repetitive knots?

[Dr. Sassi]

Hi bench-sport,

I assume I understand what you want, but that is not in the new Node included. Mul/Mod is the answer.

Right mouse click on the Ramp allows for doubling the Knots and can be done many times. Yes, not parametrically.

Here are three examples, and I assume they are not along your question, just to be on the safe side.
One does example does it, but it is a hack, and not even.

CV4_2025_drs_25_RScl_01.c4d

If there is something else, I'm happy to look into it (in the morning)

Have a great weekend
