Hatch not showing properly

Anonymous — Wed, 10 Feb 2016 17:04:56 GMT

Hello, I don't know whats happening.. I'm using autocad 2011, I have some boundaries hatched with dots, it looks fine both in model and layout views, perfectly fine, but when I plot the hatches disapear from the majority of the drawing. Even when I try to plot to pdf prior to printing.

I've taken a screenshot so you guys can see what I'm trying to say.

Does anyone knows how to solve this?

Thanks in advance and sorry about the poor english.

PS: The "brownish" hatches are fine... The problem is with the green dots.

You could assign a heavier plotting lineweight to the color of those Hatch patterns. Dots can be at least close to invisible at fine lineweights. It looks like some toward the left and a few near the top are heavier -- are they a different color?

Hi,

I would look ...

if a CTB or STB is active and overwrites the graphical representation of the dots
if that happens with all types if visual styles

If we can have the drawing to verify this with newer versions with 2011 and also on our workstations.
