In my posted drawing download/file.php?id=6781 I'm trying to fill all circles in layer "redrawpcb" (orange layer color), grey elements.

I filtered out all lines, deleted, what was already hatched, made also the ovals (14pin IC DIP socket) to poly strings and removed the hatch also.

Then I selected all, subtracted all lines and polys.

When trying to fill solid (hatch from selection - HA) , I'm getting a message

What is still in there that cannot be hatched?

What is the active layer?
Is it visible?
Is it locked?
Are you using blocks?

A hatch is created on the active layer.
This layer has bo able to get transactions.

Error has nothing to do with boundaries.
Qcad tried to cast something but the casting itself failed.

Remember that a multi hatch is one fixed entity later.

Ah, thanks. Forgot to set the layer in which the hatch should occur to active.
