Rubble hatch problem

Hi Folks. I've posted three files to the customer files area. The subject
is "rubble hatch files".

The question is, the rubble hatch as shown in the good file only works in
brand new drawings. Whenever we try to use it in a "real" situation, it
appears as it does in the bad file. What could be causing this? The
problem could be solved by a similar hatch that actually works if someone
could point me to that.

The bad file is an actual drawing that I have erased everything out of, so
the culprit is in there somewhere.

Thanks! Allison

 

I don't know what your dwg with the bad pat is, but superpurge purged 396 items
and the pat was still bad. However, I hatched several dwgs and had no problems.
One thing I did notice was that your pat was set to be unassociated - not that
it would make any difference.

 

Well, I found my own solution. It's the snapbase variable. Apparently when
you get too far from 0,0 it freaks some hatches out, and all you have to do
is type in snapbase and click near where you're drawing. Update bad hatch
with hatchedit, problem solved!
