I've got one workstation that is not retaining the scale of a standard hatch pattern. when opened in other workstation the scale is correct at 400... in this workstation it is set to Zero.. is this a Graphics Card problem or an annotative switch I've missed somewhere?

And where are you checking it?
Show us what you mean with screenshots from both machines as well please.

could you share the dwg (parent & child) with just the hatch pattern & boundaries like you've shown in the screenshots?

ok, here is the original file. We have since resolved the problem, but not the issue so to speak. in the offending workstation that detected the 7 hatch patters we deleted the 4 extra. This is not the corrected file. this file displays 7 patterns on One Workstation, and 3 on the others. it will be interest to see how many get 3 patterns, and how many get 7? I should add that all the workstations in the experiment display 25 layers, all layer were on and thawed.

Your pattern scale is 1, not 400.
You need a scale 100 or the 400 to displaying well the ANSI31 pattern.
OPTION/SYSTEM/ Hidden message settings
Is there a dialog about HATCH listed? Remove it and AutoCAD will point you to hatchs with too low scales.

Another thing (what is important if we talking about different Users or workstations:
VPMAXLINES (and VPMAXAREAS), ask your Help [F1] about this setting

Actually, that was another difference between the workstation. in the one, its scale was 1, in the others it's scale was 400...

when I open this, I get a scale of 400, and 3 hatch patterns. it was also the correct display in the Offending workstation. What did you do?

>>"Actually, that was another difference between the workstation. in the one, its scale was 1, in the others it's scale was 400"
A workstation will not change the object property of any object, also not the "Scale" of hatchs.
I guess you INSERTed or PASTEed zhe content, instead to open the same file as on the other workstation.
(or we don't talk about plain AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT)

I found a total of 10 hatch patterns. I separated them all out so you can see. A number of them also overlap each other which would also cause problems with displaying / plotting.
In the upper plan there are 8 (1 really small one) and in the lower right corner there's another plan that has 2 more.

neither, x-bldg outline.dwg is an XREF, and attached or overlaid as needed. an it did in fact display differently on the one workstation... as well as detecting the additional hatches.
Someone else in this group detected 10 separate hatches... these are differences I just can't wrap my head around.

That is just odd... how can that be that 3 different workstations are detecting different entities?

don't know about your workstations but mine is detecting a total of 10

and as I said earlier, it's odd. My workstation detect 3, another detected 7, and yours has 10?!?

" how can that be that 3 different workstations are detecting different entities? "
That isn't the case. You are not familiar (not enough) with Object selection methods
and Hatch settings.
1. Turn on the message I wrote about (OPTIONS..)
2. Set VPMAXLINES to 10.000.000 (it is a user or workstation setting, not stored in your file!)
3. open your file
A message appears about a problem about the hatchs (scales)
Do not use the 'convert to solid' option
4. Run ZOOM EXTENTS to see all visible content
Press CTRL+A
Check your properties palette, filter for Object type HATCH -> there are 10 of them.
Check your properties Palette.
Some hatchs are on top of ohter hatchs, so you see less than 10, but you can move each by side,
this way you will see 10 single hatchs.

use lisp to get the accurate #...copy & paste this line of code and the # returned is # of hatches you have:
(sslength(ssget "x"'((0 . "HATCH"))))

If you rely on AutoCAD's SELECTSIMILAR command make sure SEttings has everything unchecked except for Name:

But the scale of one of them (on Layer "C-SITE_HTCH") has a to big scale.
While selected you will see the shape, but you need a hatch scale of ~0.01 to see the hatch pattern (AR-SAND) well.
