If I'm following, there are several tools you could use to create a square: plot, structure, etc. What particular look are you trying to achieve? If you can link us to a pic somewhere online I might have a better idea.

Thank you!

Hi Kanchou,

I will try to explain.
In the attached picture you can see part of a street (marked with the red arrow).
Its a street created with the Road tool and filled with the "Road 4" texture.

The in the attached picture you can see a blue part.
Thats the part I want filled with same texture as the road.

Hope this helps.

Okay. I'm following now :)

The easiest thing to do would be to do a plot with the plot tool and change the texture so that it matches the road (change it from the Object Properties, as I don't think there is a matching Preset).
