Hatching

[bowen192]

I have just done a section view and the option to perform hatching seems to have disappeared.

Any ideas?

I just gave sectioning a try in 2013 R1 and was able to cross-hatch the cut planes by right clicking on the part I wanted to hatch afterwards and choosing 'Hatching Style' from the menu (see image). Do you not see this option when you right click on the part?

The option has just disappeared.

I've opened a couple of older files with hatching and I can edit and add hatching no problem.

I have two Section Groups, but not sure why that would make a difference.

I turned off the section view and created a new identical one.  The hatching option is back.

Strangely, when I zoom out, the hatching option disappears.

Zoom back in and it reappears!

FFS! 

Only SOME components accepting hatching now...

I've now figured out that it only works on certain slides, although I'm not sure what the pattern is yet.

Currently I am finding a snapshot that works, highlighting the snapshots I require the hatching done in and then altering it in the working snapshot.

Thanks for the additional feedback on when you are seeing this. Despite trying to reproduce the conditions you have described (with different zoom and slides) we have been unable to reproduce the problem. 

If you are willing to share your dataset with us so we can reproduce the issue and log it as a defect for fixing, you can contact me directly at:

Otherwise, we will continue to look into it and let you know if we can figure out what is happening.

Thanks,

Peter
