Title: Associative Table Hatch
Post by: BFD550 on March 01, 2017, 06:14:25 PM
Is anyone aware if there is a way to associate a hatch to a table cell?

I am creating a materials legend which has a hatch "symbol" in one column and a description in the column to the right. If the cell size changes (horizontally or vertically) I am left modifying the cell and the hatch. It would be great to have an associative hatch (linked to a cell) that would act like a poly line border, reacting to an adjustment.

I have experimented with saving the block as a hatch and selecting the feature for "AutoFit" when inserting a block into a table. This works with the exception of proportional scaling. If the cell is not proportional to the hatch created, the display becomes limited.

Any thoughts / ideas are welcome and greatly appreciated in advance.
