    I am trying to edit hatch in a detail view of a section view. There
    doesn't seem to be a way to control this other than editing the hatch
    in the parent section view. The detail is scaled so what is good for
    the section is too fine for the detail.

    In 2006 the hatches certainly seem to be directly linked between the parent
    and detail view.
    However, the spacing is kept constant in terms of "paper space" units.
    i.e. if it measures 2mm in the parent when printed out, it will also measure
    2mm in the detail view, and so there will be twice as many lines in a 2:1
    scale detail view.

    Is that what you are finding unacceptable?

    Regards,
