Sets the hatch origin at the bottom-right corner of the rectangular extents of the hatch boundary. Sets the hatch origin at the bottom-left corner of the rectangular extents of the hatch boundary.
Specifies the new hatch origin point directly. By default, all hatch origins correspond to the current UCS origin. Some hatches, such as brick patterns, are meant to be aligned with a point on the hatch boundary.
#AUTOCAD CUSTOMIZE RIBBON PANEL ISO#
(Available only for predefined ISO patterns) Scales an ISO pattern based on the selected pen width.Ĭontrols the starting location of hatch pattern generation. (Available only when Hatch Type is set to User Defined) Draws a second set of lines at 90 degrees to the original lines, creating a crosshatch (HPDOUBLE). Using this option, you can easily display hatch patterns at a scale that is appropriate for your layout. (Available only in a layout) Scales the hatch pattern relative to paper space units. Select Use Current to use the current layer (HPLAYER). (Available only when Hatch Type is set to Gradient) When Hatch Type is set to Gradient, this option specifies the tint (the selected color mixed with white) or the shade (the selected color mixed with black) used for a one-color gradient fill (GFCLRLUM).Īssigns new hatch objects to the specified layer, overriding the current layer. (Available only when Hatch Type is set to User Defined) Specifies the spacing of lines in a user-defined pattern (HPSPACE). (Available only when Type is set to Pattern) Expands or contracts a predefined or custom hatch pattern (HPSCALE). Set a hatch angle between 0 to 359 degrees using the slider (HPANG). Specifies an angle for Gradient and Pattern hatch objects relative to the X axis of the current UCS. Use the drop-down list to specify whether transparency is set to ByLayer, ByBlock, or by object (Transparency Value). Sets the level of transparency for new hatch objects, overriding the default object transparency. When Hatch Type is set to Solid, Gradient Color 2 is not available. Specifies the color for hatch pattern backgrounds, or the second gradient color.
Overrides the current color for solid fills and hatch patterns, or specifies the first of two gradient colors (HPCOLOR or GFCLR1). A custom pattern is a pattern that is defined in any custom PAT files that you have added to the search path. User-defined patterns are based on the current linetype in your drawing. AutoCAD LT: acadlt.pat or acadltiso.pat.The program provides the following predefined patterns: (Available only during hatch creation) Defines the boundary set from the objects that you selected with Define Boundary Set. (Available only during hatch creaton) Defines the boundary set from all objects within the extents of the current viewport. Specifies a limited set of objects, called a boundary set, for evaluation by the pick point when creating the hatch. (Available only during hatch creation) Creates a region object that encloses the hatch object. (Available only during hatch creation) Creates a polyline that encloses the hatch object. (Available only during hatch creation) Does not create a separate hatch boundary object.
#AUTOCAD CUSTOMIZE RIBBON PANEL HOW TO#
Specifies how to handle hatch boundary objects. You can only edit an associative hatch by grip-editing the associated boundary objects. When you select an associative hatch, a single hatch grip point is displayed unless you select the Display Boundary Objects option. When you select a non-associative hatch, the hatch boundary grips are displayed automatically. Removes from the boundary definition any of the objects that were added previously.Ĭreates a polyline or region around the selected hatch or fill, and optionally associates the hatch object with it.ĭisplays boundary grip controls that you can use to grip-edit both the boundary and the selected hatch object.
You can undo the last selection or all selections, change the selection method, change the island detection style, or preview the hatch or gradient fill. While selecting objects, you can right-click at any time in the drawing area to display a shortcut menu.
