Title: Take a name for hatch- (patter-) name
Post by: cadplayer on October 22, 2013, 05:01:46 AM

Short and quickly, is it possible to write a own pattername ?
I have much hatches in drawing like (ANSI, DOT, NET...
Now I want put a name like ANSI -> "type A", DOT -> "type B", NET -> "type C"

Yes, you can create your own custom hatch pattern definition file (.pat file), here is the documentation:

@ cadplayer:
Take hatch name? Write hatch name? Put hatch name? What exactly do you want to do?

Sorry little confused!
I have a hatch with a name ex. ANSI, I want rename ANSI in TypA. The think is if I select the hatch and so I can see type too.

Lee, I have found that - going via pat-files - I think this is shortest way.

Thanks for your comments!
