Is this occurring in one drawing, or many drawings? Is the behavior consistent when hatching multiple areas in the same drawing, or does it vary? It could be a number of things, so if you can offer more information and/or post your drawing, it would be helpful.

 

In the meantime, you can have a look here and see if adjusting any of the settings resolves the problem.

Thank you for your reply.

It is occurring in multiple drawings, but not all. And if it happens in one area it will happen in all areas of that particular dwg. I have tried to set new origin as well as the link you sent.

Can you post one of the problem files? Also, are other users working in the drawings, and if so, do they experience the same problem?

Have you ensured that the hatch origin is near your working area, and not at 0,0 ?

I did try the origin as well with no luck?

As @JRitner said - can you post a sample drawing here for us to look at? Even if you have to delete everything else out of the drawing except the misbehaving hatch entity.

I did just have a co-worker open the same dwg and all was good? So I at least narrowed it to my PC.

Are all users loading the same hatch patterns from the same shared folder?

 

If moving the hatch origin did not work I would make sure all users are loading the same pattern definitions (pat files in the Support folder) at startup.
