Shift, scale, or rotate
hatch patterns to align them with existing objects.
To
shift a hatch pattern, relocate the origin point of the hatch object.
The same tools in the user interface as listed in Modify Hatch Properties include options
for specifying a new origin point, specifying a different rotation angle,
and changing the scale of the hatch pattern.
In some cases, it might
be easier to move or rotate the user coordinate system to align
with existing objects, and then recreate the hatch.
To modify the properties
of a hatch object
- Select a hatch object.
- Change the desired hatch settings from
the Hatch Editor tab on the ribbon, the Modify menu, Modify toolbar,
or enter hatchedit at the Command prompt.
- In the user interface, a panel in the
Hatch Editor tab, or the Hatch Edit dialog box, change the hatch
settings or properties as needed.
