Hi Maxim - I'm back - in the end I reverted to autoCAD 2015 LT for Mac which I have been using for the last year, without problem until I downlaoded 2016.

This now displays the same problems - no hatch shows or for that matter there is no selection.

I downloaded your version to a separate folder and can hatch in that - thankyou.

When I revert to the remaining dwgs, no hatch shows.

I have fully uninstalled the trial 2016LT for Mac.

I have confirmed that the variable for MEASUREMENT is set to (1)

Methinks I should have explained that the dwgs I am working on have a long history of multi-users, crash periodically and started out as autoCAD 2004.

Maybe the transfer of autoCAD to Mac is not managing?

Thank you for your continuing interest.

Regards,

Gray
