Hatch patterns are nothing more than text files. You can create them in a text editor, or using special software to make the task easier. It is easier (ce facil) to find a pattern that someone else has created. There are many patterns on this site and since the file uses the same format as AutoCAD (with the addition of a new line) you can find them everywhere. Software to create hatch: http://www.cadro.com.au/hatchkit/ Hope this helps (HTH) Tom

Its simple to edit any existing pattern to make it either model or drafting and also to set a scale. You just need to add the following information in the pat file using a text editor. ;%UNITS=MM - To set the units ;%TYPE=MODEL - To set the type, entry DRAFTING if not model. HTH.

I tried adding the ;%TYPE=MODEL into the .txt file and it never worked for me. Any more direction that I can receive?

Not sure what your problem is. Here is an example that does work:

*10.5x15 Stretch running bond

;%TYPE=MODEL

0, 0,0, 0,10.5

90, 0,0, 10.5,7.5, 10.5,-10.5
