Q: (See mesh_problem.jpg)
I created mesh-object (plane with a pit with checker-texture). In bottom of
the pit, there is circle in texture. Is there any other way to get rid of
that circle than scaling tecture size?

Scaling the texture (in the direction perpendicular to the plane) would 
surely be the easiest way to get rid of it, in this case. You could also 
use uv-mapping.

One method would be to write a pigment function, like this

  texture {
    pigment {function {(sin(x*4)+sin(z*4))/4}
      colour_map {[0.5 rgb x][0.5 rgb z]}
    }
  }

This looks just like

  texture {
    pigment {checker rgb x rgb z}
  }

except that it only chequers in the x and z directions.

Thanks,
I got it working just how I like it with your help.

Also uv-mapping sound promising. I am going to try it with my other project.

You can scale the checker pattern verticaly. Checker is an infinite stacking of boxes,
along all 3 
axis. Using something like scale<1,9,1>will stretch those boxes, pushing the boundary
away.

Nice image.
