Support File Search Path accidentally changed trying to add new hatch

Anonymous — Tue, 29 May 2018 17:13:23 GMT

Help! I'm using Autocad lt on windows 10. Tried unsuccessfully to add a custom hatch pattern and somehow changed my Support file search path (the default one at the top) or deleted it. I don't know what it was to start with now to change it back. Can anyone help with this? Thanks!

Edited to add: I think I have solved this by finding an image of the default Support File search paths and copying it. Still cannot figure out how to add a custom hatch.

If the hatchpattern definition is created well, you only have to add the *.pat file into one of your supportpathes.

(this folder shouldn't have many files or located in a slow Network storage).

So: Whats your Problem with "add a custom hatch pattern"

Error-messages? Or if you can select the custom pattern for hatch, what happens if you select the pattern or if you select the boundary for hatching?

The Supportpath-folder: Is it a network location? Is there a always loaded *.cuix file in that folder?

Betreff, thank-you, that was very helpful! I added the custom hatch successfully! Hopefully I resolved the other issue regarding the Support file search path, seems to be working good now, so far.
