Recreating hatch boundary problem

[cadconcepts]

Hi All

I absolutely love the recreate hatch boundary feature in the hatch command. However, I have found that sometimes the boundary is recreated out of numerous individual polyline segments instead of one continuous one. Is there a setting that I need to change in order to get a conticuous polyline? Thanks.

Use pedit->join or region

This always happens when you've created the hatch by picking an internal point. But even sometimes when you've used the Add: Select objects option. I'm not sure why the later. But as Arben.Allaraj stated - the only workaround is to PEdit & Join afterwards.

but using the pedit to join the boundary results in disassociation--which defeats the purpose of associating to the boundary. Is there a way to always create the boundary as a closed, multisegment pline?
