No Hatch

Post by wayne67 » Thu Dec 10, 2015 12:46 am

I found some instruction on how to do
hatching that Andrew put out back 2010.
I am trying to fill to parallel lines that represent
a wall thickness. Draw > Hatch. I do not get a
Hatch dialog. Has this function been moved?

The hatch tool need a closed contour like a rectangle. Just two parallel lines are not closed. Just close them with lines and try it again.
Work smart, not hard: QCad Pro
Win10/64, QcadPro, QcadCam version: Current.

Thanks Husky. Do you actual own Huskies?
If so, do you race them. I am from Maine
and that is a favorite hobby there.

I got to think what you said about closing
the parallel line and was wonder; if i draw the
perimeter of a house and I am able to fill the wall
space with a hatch, then I put a wall in which touches
the perimeter on two sides of the house,bedroom, haven't
i close he loop?
