Create a curved hatch pattern

[leon.r]

i have a building wich is on a curved grid. i need to hatch the interior of the building with a net hatch but along the curve of the grid. is this possible or do i have to go and manually draw it?

Hi

Please note I have *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD Customization forum to this one as I feel this particular Forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

Thanks, Mike

Hi

Simple answer - Yes it should be possible.

It might be worth looking at the _.Boundary command first, if the _.BHatch command is currently causing you problems.

If still no joy, please post an example drawing that shows the issue / problem you are facing.

Have a good one, Mike

the problem is not the hatch, i need to create a curve hatch. attached is a dwg of what i mean. the green lines are the grid and the interior is the hatch i need to create

Please note I have *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD General forum to this one as I believe it would be better served here.

Hi

Ok! now I understand.

Simple answer - I don't think it can be done with a Hatch Pattern (would happily liked to be proved wrong on that statement).

Why? - Hatch Pattern definitions are made up of Lines and_or Dots and_or Gaps...

Have a good one, Mike

No Hatch, but maybe an Edge Surface

You can try this :
Trim the two green lines to the green arc.
Offset the green arc very close to the intersection/origin (make a very small arc)
Set SURFTAB1 to 36 and SURFTAB2 to 36 ( or something suitable )
Use Command: _edgesurf and select the two lines and the small and large arc.

You will get one object, a polygon mesh that maybe is usable.

: ) Happy Computing !

Has this been solved? I would like to create a hatch like in my "DESIRED HATCH." I had to hatch, array, explode array and rotate each segment. Maybe someone has a LISP to do this.
