Cannot trim hatch

[dvrVSNMW]

Hello,

I cannot trim a hatch. Is there a way to trim this hatch ?

I attached a screenshot. 

If you need more info pls ask.

Thx.

Hi,

Check if the elevation of hatch and the line is zero.

Hey, thx for the reply. 

Elevations or Z-coordinates are all "zero"

[vinodkl]

Have you checked the link provided above.

[dvrVSNMW]

Now I have yes. No solution there. 

I have made a new screenshot. The hatch has a circle in it, maybe this is not a normal hatch... ?

(for now I just have moved all the point from above to the line I wanted to trim on. So I fixed it the hard way.)

You can share the drawing so that we can help you out with the problem.

Drawing in attachement...

Because the outline is garbage,
therefore the hatching has no calculated area value (see CTRL + 1)

What @cadffm is telling is right.

A workaround would be to right click on the hatch and select generate boundary which would generate a boundary around the hatch. Now delete the hatch a recreate the hatch again. Now this hatch can be trimmed.

Yeah, hatch is ****ed up by the original "maker".  So I'll go with your solutions. 

Thx everybody for the quick help!

Importing/converting a file from a media other than
AutoCAD based products for use in AutoCAD *might*
cause entity handling problems with hatch as well
as polylines, splines, arcs, etc.

Just be aware of this...

It can be trimmed if you do this.

Define a new boundary using Hatchedit. And then trim. 

Note: Keep the newly defined boundary in the temp layer to avoid confusion.

I will work for sure.
