For instructions, visit the Selecting a Scale for a Hatch section of our Save Hatches documentation. We recommend changing hatch scales and rotations in the Land F/X Hatch Patterns Drawing. Remember: When you change a hatch pattern's scale, you're changing it for all future use by the whole office. The system will automatically scale the pattern appropriately for Model Space. You can refine your drawing setup routine by loading in the definitions of these layers that you define by using our Layer States tool to save a list of layers and their properties.Īlways test the output of any adjusted hatch pattern in Paper Space. Specifying a layer name here will place the hatch on that layer instead of the default, including when you're placing hatches for Area/Volume Reference Notes (RefNotes). If you want, you can type the name of the layer where you want the hatch to be placed. Control the rotation, by degrees, of the hatch pattern by typing in this field or using the slide.ĥ. Control the scale of the selected pattern by either typing a scale value or using the slide.Ĥ.

Storing our blocks and hatches on the Cloud streamlines our installer and allows us to add new blocks and hatches dynamically, making them available with a simple software update. When you place a hatch for the first time, the software will download the PAT file containing that hatch and place it in the appropriate location in the Hatch folder. Under this cloud setup, each of the hatches will live on our website until you place it in a drawing. Previously, the hatch files were downloaded automatically into the folder LandFX/Hatch when you installed our software. Our default hatches are hosted on the cloud (online).

Before using this tool, you will need to create an appropriate layer and make that layer active. Note: Hatch patterns can be used for a variety of purposes.
