Plotting with hatches

[Cathy_Simons]

Hello guys, Long time no see.

I am plotting a drawing using a pen table. for some reason it will not plot out the hatching. I have 2 other drawings that were made at the same time and they arent having any issues at all.

Any ideas?

did i click off a magic button?

:shock: WOW ... long time no hear :D

Did U check 2- C ... if the hatch is on a NO PLOT layer?
Is it on "defpoints"?
What color is the hatch? Now properties does that color have in the PEN TABLE? Is it set to 255 or screening in the pen table?

Is the hatch a block? If so ... exploded it and see if it has a special color attached to it ... as well. Then coordinate that color back to the pen table for properties.


Hope one of those helps. 8)

well the big mystery is solved but not really in a satisfactory way. I copied the hatch from another drawing and pasted it into this one and voila, like magic all was right in the world. I dont have any idea why.
It wasnt on the same layer as everything else that plotted and it was the same color- I have no idea why it happened but it's all better now.

the upside of my long silence is I wasn't having any problems...

Thanks for the help!
