Hatch problem

Hi

I have a dwg with a few different hatches.
I want to hatch a new area which I can do.
But, I can not match properties.
As soon as I match properties the newly created hatch disappears.
This only happen with the one hatch type, all the others can be matched except this one.
Any suggestions?

I take it the one hatch is something you do not have access to in your other
files? If so, you need that original source code from that file's creator.

The hatches in this drawing is all stored in the correct folder and are correctly referenced.
I can use all the hatches.
The only problem is that I can not match properties of one specific hatch to one of the others.
There is only one hatch that can not be matched.
May this have something to do with the boundary, etc?

Was any of the hatching done on a different version of Autocad? I have
seen this happen with old drawings done on 2000i and revisited on 2004
and 2008. Apparently autocad looks at the name of the pattern, finds the
first pattern in its list with the same name and even if the pattern
isn't the same, will apply the angle and scale to the pattern with
different results than expected. Also can happen if there is more than
one pattern with the same name. If you select one from the list it will
use the one you select, but if you match it will use the first one it
finds. Unfortunately Autocad doesn't warn you of the fact that 2
patterns have the same name.

Can't find what you're looking for? Ask the community or share your knowledge.
