Topic: Uknown Pattern Name....?

[Bill Tillman]

I am debugging my code and have corrected as much as I can. Still there are these two pesky messages about "Unknown pattern name" which continue to show up each time the program is run. In the whole program there are only two times which I invoke the hatch command and both times it works correctly. I have double checked spelling, syntax, etc... and made darn sure the "AR-CONC" hatch is present and accounted for in my acad.pat file. And the hatch commands work perfect. Still each time the program runs, it prints "Unknown pattern name" twice before exiting cleanly.

Is this something I just have to live with?

With a code example we must guess at the problem. My guess is that you are using a
(command ".hatch" ....) and too many "" or wrong order. I would set CMDECHO to 1
and try to track the error.

Code: [Select]

(command "._HATCH" "P" "AR-CONC" "0.25" "0.0" r1 "")
It's a relatively simple command and like I said, it executes fine. It's just that the message about the "Unknown pattern name" show up.

Have you tried loading the patterns manually?  You may have a bad hatch pattern in the definition files.
