Solved: Hatch area

Joe-Bouza · ‎08-08-2012

I have a user that occasionally finds a hatch that he cannot report the area of. What may cause that?

Does the command _AREA suboption _OBJECT work for him?

If the hatch boundary crosses itself the resultant hatch will not display an area. Two vertices at the same location will be considered crossing. I have better luck with areas if I create the hatch by picking points instead of objects.

Does he have the current SP's? Is the drawing from an previous version?

I seem to remember a thread where this problem was tied to the version that was being run or the version the hatch was created in. I tried to search for it, but didn't find it.

I am listing sidewalk hatch with properties to do a quantity take off. 2014. Some hatches show and others do not.

Is this a function of the annotative/non annotative or assoc/non assoc. versions of the hatches or the odd geometry listed below.

I don't hatch so don't know how they were created. What would I look for in the property window?
