Hello @akmalrafiq 

 

From the image shared, I'm assuming that the objects are elevated, so you are not able to use the HATCH function. Can you please share the drawing so that I can check it from my end and confirm?

Hello @akmalrafiq 

 

As suspected the objects have "Z" values due to which you are not able to perform the HATCH function. Please see the attached images.

However, I was able to hatch the rectangle which doesn't have any problem. If you are not able to see the hatch applied to the rectangle then, type in the command "3DCONFIG" and check if its turned "on".

The selected object is a spline and that drawing wasn't created with AutoCAD.

Neither the image nor the drawing file makes it clear what/where you are trying to Hatch.  But yes, a lot of the possible objects involved are at varying Z coordinates.

 

If you can correct that with Properties or the FLATTEN command, you should be able to Hatch.  If there's some reason you can't do that, one thing you can do is to draw a Polyline using the PLINE command, Osnapping to endpoints, etc.  That will result in something all at the same Z elevation, and you can Hatch with Object-selection of that.  But if it's Associative, it would be to that Polyline, not the the things the Polyline was drawn over, so if you want the Hatch to adjust to changes, you should keep that Polyline and change it along with the other elements that it overlays.

HATCH is a 2D tool.

 

Your drawing is not flat at all

The areas you are trying to hatch must be flat (Z=0).

 

How would you like to proceed?

A small correction:  they don't need to be Z=0.  They can be at any elevation, but they just need to be Z=all-the-same for a given Hatched area.  However, the Hatch pattern will be drawn at the current drawing elevation, whether or not that is the elevation of the boundary object(s).  Here:

the red square is the boundary for the green Hatch pattern, and the red is at elevation Z=1, but the current drawing elevation is at Z=0 [WCS], and that's where the green Hatch pattern goes, whether I Hatch it by picking inside or by object selection.
