So i'm trying to place a solid hatch inside a circle. AutoCAD seems to ask all the questions but then doesn't add the hatching. I tried ansi31 hatching and there is no difference. Current layer is on, color that should be seen.
View 2 RepliesI've noticed when I try to hatch something it will regen model every time after I select boundaries.
Below is from command line. How can I turn it off?
Command: BH HATCH
Pick internal point or [Select objects/seTtings]: S
Select objects or [picK internal point/seTtings]:Regenerating model.

Never had this issue when running past versions of Autocad but every time i try and hatch using 'pick internal points' the program crashes. "FATAL ERROR - Out of memory - shutting down" message comes up every time. Hatching by selecting an object works fine but most of time this option is unusable.

I am working with Autocad 2011 and I have a problem with the geometry display. The block I created was a dynamic block of a concrete nail we use in surveying. The circle is created with two lines crisscrossing each other so as to create 4 quadrants within it. I also created it with visibility states and a lookup parameter for scaling to the appropriate size according to the drawing scale. The visibility state is for "Found state" and a "Placed state". For the found state 2 of the 4 quadrants are filled in(using a hatch pattern) and for the placed state all 4 quadrants are cleared. What is happening is the hatch pattern is changing to different quadrants of the circle depending on what scale you chose from the lookup scale list.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy AutoCAD 2012 freezes almost evertime when I do hatching. It doesnt matter the size of the drawing nor the type of hatch i use. It freezes while I try to pick boundary points. When it freezes, I cant even move the curser. I need to restart it from the hub.
What could be the issue? Whats spec on my computer do I need maybe?
Also with the Recovery Management, it takes like forever to try and recover a drawing.

Attempting to hatch (walls, in this case). This screenshot is just after I enter the Hatch command...... And this is what happens when I click inside the wall to be hatched. This is the exact same sceen, one mouse click later:
... This seems to be my green text somehow suddenly expanding in size. This then prevents the hatch from being properly applied. THe green text is all annotative, seems to be MLeader, and also happens when I have an MLeader with a block / attirbute (ie, in the first image I have a "W6" block in a diamond multileader.
To avoid this I have been usind Layiso / Layuniso but this takes time & doesn't automatically 'cut out' the hatch if there is text in the way.
The hatching appears in model space and paper space, except when i print from paper space, to PDF for example, the hatching disappears. why you can see the hatching in paper space but when you print to PDF it doesn't come out.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have some VIPs coming to see our new waste treatment facility. I was asked to make a pretty picture for them. So I started to hactch our site plan. Roads with gravel, grass, solid for tanks. They wanted more... So i changed tanks and grass to gradients and that was ok. When I tried to change the roads to a gradient, the tanks and grass became the new gradient and the road diappeared (blank). This is in ACAD 2013. I tried to do it in 2012 and the system crashed. When I restarted ACAD asked to send error message. The road is outlined in a polyline, as are all other objects beacause I have learned that ACAD can't handle the pick area unless it is a very small area. So I have lots of extra lines that are on defpoints or a separate layer, and hatches on their own layer.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD generates gaps to my drawing, sometimes there is NO gap and then it says there is when I'm selection new are to hatch (puts the red circle to old place where it didn't earlier say there is gap!). I have tried to use Gap Tolerance tool first with value of 10 but it didn't work. After that I changed it to 1000 and it worked but the hatch area wasn't good. I also tried to pull line over other and trim it, didn't work either. Used also join but it didn't work.
I have used object snap always when I drew the picture. I have zoomed as much I can and there is no gaps.

I've got a hatching problem...whenever I try to use a "dot" hatching...at a scale of 50.000....I tend to get this wierd white spots on different areas...and it seems to flush with the MLeaders...(See Attached Image).

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are using section views in our drawings. However, we don’t want any hatching to show up. I’ve scoured the hatch libraries and hatch documentation and I have not been able to figure out how to turn hatching off, or alternatively to create a hatch style that is blank. My attempt at creating a blank hatching file is attached, but it didn’t work.
How can I turn off hatching or create a 'blank' .pat?
When a co-worker is trying to hatch using pick point, multiple red circles start appearing and choke up the program. He is not even picking inside the area where these gap indication circles are appearing. I have had him adjust the hatch gap tolerance but am wondering if I can turn off this behavior entirely?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have small problem. When I use hatch on certain area it also wants to hatch one closed area ,however other closed areas do not hatch. I rechecked , remade the closed area which is hatched along side with the area I really need to hatch. So how can I isolate that little area? Or what is the problem?

View 7 Replies View RelatedSo I'm having an issue with draw order... I have a base with a solid screened hatch that is xrefed into a sheet file in model space. I have text, reference bubbles, dimensions, etc in paper space. When I print, the information in paper space that is above the hatch isn't showing up. Usually the information in paper space would show up when I print without having to deal with draw order...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have this issue where I have stone right below some framing and other objects. I use a hatch to fill in the square of stone. When I use the hatch, I send it to the back of the drawing order, but it is right below a bunch of my dimensions.
These dimensions become hard to see. I could have sworn that I once saw my hatches leave some extra room around the dimensions. Is there a way to make them easier to see? I guess the ugly solution I have right now is to put small boxes around anything within the hatch to leave some room.
I have got a recordset that contains a bunch of ehandles for closed plines. Currently I cycle through the recordset, change each ehandle to an oblject and hatch it. It works fine, but is a tad slow. I would like to put all of the ehandles into a selectiion set (maybe?) and hatch them all at one time.
View 4 Replies View RelatedA college, using AutoCAD 2009, is having problems when hatching.
If using a polyline, for example, to create a hatch boundary, and then creating the hatch, both the hatch and the polyline are included in a group. How do I turn group select off so that the polyline or the hatch can be selected separately? How do I set the hatching up so that the hatch and polyline are not grouped together?
I have had some success using the 'Toggle value of PICKADD Sysvar' and the 'select' button but I have not been able to repeat my success so I obviously don't understand what those buttons are doing.
I'm adding some rectangles to a drawing and want the hatching to match what it aready there. I thought the simplest way would be to match the properties, which works 99% of the time, but for some reason when I do that on the drawing I'm currently working on the scale is different.

I use Civil 2012 and have experience with AutoCAD plain, but only try to learn Civil 3D at the moment.
I have a drawing with polylines filled with hatching. When I pdf it the lineweight of the poly line is different to that of the hatching....eventhough they are on the same layer and the lineweights is set to 'by layer'.
I have a few rectangles on the drawing which aren't effected...its only the poly lines....
I’m trying to list the area of hatching in a few drawings. I’ve used this method in the past to figure this out. I’m using AutoCAD Map 3D 2012. I used Map 3D 2010 and could simply list the hatching and see the areas.

If hatching is required to hide an object than how do I not print the object in b&w without the hatching?
I discovered a weird thing that seems like a bug...I tried to hatch manually while in profile view (couldn't figure out how to do what I want with the profile view hatching options) and it seems that if I try to make one hatch (by picking internal points) that includes multiple structure profiles on the same profile view, the first structure profile for that profile view works as a hatch boundary, but subsequent structure profiles are basically ignored if I keep trying to pick internal points to make a composite hatch.
I assume it's because of this same bug that I can't create a hatch by choosing boundary objects and using two structure profiles in the same profile view as boundary objects.
how to hatch using the profile view hatching and to use a pipe network as a boundary, that would also be useful.
if I hatch by picking internal points, and pick one area with a structure profile as part of the boundary, and then I pick a similar area in a different profile view, everything works fine...it's just the second (and though I don't have more than 2 structures per profile view in my drawing, I would assume any subsequent) structure profiles that I try to use as hatch boundaries that AutoCAD is basically ignoring.
I'm using C3D 09 with all the updates. OK, now that those are addressed, I am having an issue with my pipe hatching dissappearing when I connect it to a structure. See the two attached pics for clarity.
