Tool for Creating Hatches

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by Fred Vandervelde, Oct 7, 2004.

  1. Hi There,

    Does anyone know of a good tool (free or pay) to create Hatch Patterns in
    AutoCAD? What I'm looking for is something that will create a pattern from a
    1X1 square. I found several shareware tools, but none were completely
    useful. I need to create patterns from geometry brought over from another
    CAD system.

    Thanks in advance,

    Fred Vandervelde

    I have a pretty simple homemade routine that creates hatches. You need to
    have an existing drawing containing the elements that will make up the
    hatch, and the routine establishes angles, distances, parallel offsets, etc
    based upon points you pick off of the sample drawing. It places the hatch
    specs at the end of the acad.pat file.

    If interested, gimme a holler.

    Please advise me how to utilize Express Tools.
    I have searched the Help files, there exist no references to either Express
    Tools or SUPERHATCH. I do not have access to Google.

    I'm on A2k2 and MDT6.
    TIA,
