Hi,
I'm a newbie to augi so be gentle. I've searched the forums and autodesk website for this but haven't seen anything. My problem is that sometimes when I hatch, the pattern gets "scrambled". Like I'll hatch with the gravel pattern and it will come out disconnected or broken looking. I Regen and nothing. This only occurs when I save a file from a read-only file and then try to hatch in the new file. The original file works fine.
Any ideas? I can send screen shots if you want.
Thanks,
Geoff
What version of what product are you using? Assuming 2006, since we are in that forum.
If pre-2006, change the value of SNAPBASE to a location near the area you are hatching.
If 2006, the "hatch origin" option is in the BHATCH dialog.

Hi
Have a browse of the following thread in the AutoCAD FAQ forum...
Hatch patterns playing you up
Have a good one, Mike
I am having the same problem with Gravel and Concrete hatches.
I have: reset MaxHatch to a lower value
set snapbase close to the area to be hatched
set limits to include all drawing entities
It still doesn't work.
Help, please.

If that does not work, please post the problem drawing file so we can take a look...
Have a good one, Mike
I've also noticed that it the boundary you are hatching is in a different ucs this can (although not always) cause problems.
What AutoCAD version are you using?Quote:
