LineRenderer texture won't tile

Hi all, apologize if this is the wrong place. I have looked everywhere but can't find anyone else with this problem.

I am trying to render a line that appears as a series of chevrons, like so:



I've watched two tutorials on this and both times the tutors follow this process:
1. create a new material with the chosen texture (in my case a purple chevron)
2. apply the material to the LineRenderer
3. Switch the Texture Mode to "Tile".

Ok, fair enough, seems logical. Steps 1 and 2 work fine.
My problem is, step 3 never seems to work . All I get is the chevron once, followed by a stretched extrusion. Take a look at this;


In this case the chevron is touching the end of the image, so it's "nose" just gets extruded for the length of the line.

Here are my settings:


And here are my material settings:


I feel like I've played with every setting possible to make this work. What am I doing wrong here?

 

What are the settings on the texture itself? Is imported as a Sprite, or otherwise have the Wrap set to Clamp?

 

Yes, I imported it as a png sprite.

 

Ah, I looked at the sprite's settings and found the "wrap mode" and switched it to "repeat". That fixed it.

Thanks for leading me in the right direction, friend! Also, great avatar .

 

Thanks this solved it for me too
