      <description>&lt;P&gt;That looks possible.&amp;nbsp; But about the apparently rounded corners of the 45°-angled squares in the centers of the hexagons, Hatch patterns can only have straight lines, so any "curve" must be made of multiple short line segments.&amp;nbsp; Would it be acceptable to &lt;EM&gt;not&lt;/EM&gt; round those corners, like this?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Kent1Cooper_0-1734877262443.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1448439iC6585850E6F53FBA/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Kent1Cooper_0-1734877262443.png" alt="Kent1Cooper_0-1734877262443.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That would be the easiest to define.&amp;nbsp; They can easily enough be simply chamfered if that will do at the scale of use of the pattern:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Kent1Cooper_1-1734877361921.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1448440i6AA415315A90E749/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Kent1Cooper_1-1734877361921.png" alt="Kent1Cooper_1-1734877361921.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;or they could be "rounded" with, for example, three line segments to turn the corner:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Kent1Cooper_2-1734877444952.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1448441i9D580610724F4A5B/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Kent1Cooper_2-1734877444952.png" alt="Kent1Cooper_2-1734877444952.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;How much does the rounding of the corners matter, if at all?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/69526"&gt;@Kent1Cooper&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P&gt;.....&amp;nbsp; Would it be acceptable to &lt;EM&gt;not&lt;/EM&gt; round those corners...?&amp;nbsp; That would be the easiest to define.&amp;nbsp; ....&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;For example, the TEST pattern definition in the attached TEST.PAT file [you'll have to un-Zip it -- the site doesn't allow attachment of .PAT files] makes this:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Kent1Cooper_0-1734886933843.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1448453iADA04BE6C3864E94/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Kent1Cooper_0-1734886933843.png" alt="Kent1Cooper_0-1734886933843.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It will need to be longer if you want the squares' corners chamfered or "rounded."&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The hexagon edges are 1 drawing unit long when used at a scale of 1.&amp;nbsp; The origin is in the middle of a 45°-angled square / middle of a hexagon.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You will probably want a different pattern name.&amp;nbsp; If you leave it in a file of its own, make sure the file name [minus the .pat filetype ending] &lt;EM&gt;exactly matches the name of the pattern&lt;/EM&gt; inside the file.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;OMG! I couldn't express how thank I am Mr. Cooper. I have been creating this hatch for almost one year using AI but I couldn't succeed. Many thanks to you. If you may shall I ask how to edit this file to get chamfered/Round edges as you mentioned in the above comment?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Where can I learn how the .PAT file code/Lines work? I have been wanting to learn it for a very long time. How to read the .PAT file too?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Can I get your mail ID too?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Sorry for too many questions at a time, I am just excited to see this hatch work. Once again thank you so much Mr. Cooper.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

&lt;P&gt;You would need to choose whether you want them chamfered [which will involve 4 more lines of definition] or "rounded" [12 more if rounding is by three short line segments].&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Help should always be your first resource.&amp;nbsp; &lt;A href="https://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/2025/ENU/?guid=GUID-A6F2E6FF-1717-44B6-A476-0CA817ADD77E" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&amp;gt;Here&amp;lt;&lt;/A&gt; is where to start.&amp;nbsp; [That's for Acad2025, but it won't be any different from earlier versions.]&lt;/P&gt;</description>

&lt;P&gt;Just because of the challenge of working it out, I've been picking away at this.&amp;nbsp; The new attached TEST.pat file now does this:&lt;/P&gt;
