    Installed new hatch paterns but can't use them...

    Hey!

     

    I was wondering if someone else have had the same problem. I downloaded .pat files to get new hatches, they came in individual zipped files. So i unzipped the files and created a new search path for them.

     

    I see the hatches names in the hatch creator, but i can't select them to create a hatch...

     

    Could it be possible that my .pat files were corrupted?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Could be, but that's nothing more than guessing

    If you upload one of them we can look into it.

     

    And I would also start with "try one after the other" in your situation. So in the folder you have your user-defined hatches just place one PAT file in it, then try to use it in AutoCAD, then the next and so on. It's just to know if there is only one defect or there are more defects.
