Hi Dean Saadallah,

All layers are not locked.

Hi,

 

if you run _AUDIT with your DXF you'll see that there are a lot of errors in the file.

And sorry to say, I guess it does not repair the database to the last bit, the hatch seems to stay broken. New hatches created in that drawing work perfect, but I haven't found way to get the existing ones working.

Even copy&paste into a new drawing does not allow full control over those hatches, stretching of border-grip-points is working, deleting the hatch works, but moving the complete hatch or copy does not work (tried with AutoCAD 2012 and 2014, while 2014 crashes when you don't run _AUDIT as first command (or _RECOVER to open that DXF)).

 

What product has created that hatches?

Hi Alfred, thanks for looking at the file, it was exported from structural analysis and detailing software - Orion.

Hi,

 

>> it was exported from structural analysis and detailing software - Orion

What fileformats do they support for exporting? (sorry, I have not found any good informations about that export-abilities).

Maybe another format helps to have correct hatches.
