Topic: Circle hatch pattern.

[jonesy]

Long shot question.

Does anyone here have a hatch pattern of circles... the circles need to be in a rectangular array, but I cant use the array command as I have many irregular shapes to fill.

Many thanks in advance.

I had trouble getting the pattern work until I cleaned it up (don't know why but I know the attached file works)

Thanks for sharing Keith.

It could be that the spaces are interpreted as tabs. I've had that happen before.
