Summary: The ability to apply a gradient to hatches, allowing them to go from darker to lighter, but still remain opaque.
Description: I would like AutoCAD to support gradients with other hatches in addition to solid. Gradients would be useful in hatches such as: AR-CONC, AR-SAND, and other hatches with 'random' patterns.
How Used: In our Landscape Architectural office, like most other architectural offices, aesthetics is everything. Gradients in AR-SAND would be used to show lawn 'fading' away towards edges for a desirable effect. We do this presently by using numerous hatches of various scales to get the effect.
Feature Affinity: Hatch
