Description
mapbox-gl-js version: main / v2.6.0
browser: all
Steps to Trigger Behavior
- open
http://localhost:9966/debug/#1.41/0/-16.2 - call
map.setPaintProperty('water', 'fill-pattern', 'dot-11')
Expected Behavior
pattern is seamless across tile edges
Actual Behavior
At low zoom levels, before the unskewing kicks in, this is just a matter of getting the world coordinate offset correct for each tile. At high zoom levels, the unskewed coordinate space changes as you pan around which might make the pattern move separately from the map. I'm not sure what the behavior should be. We need some experimentation

Research direction
Reproduce the issue from the debug URL by calling map.setPaintProperty('water', 'fill-pattern', 'dot-11') and compare non-Mercator views at low and high zoom. Experiment to define the intended high-zoom behavior, then verify that the pattern remains seamless across tile edges without moving separately from the map.
