Quick Reference

Use an annotative hatch to symbolically represent material such as sand, concrete, steel, earth, etc.

An annotative hatch is defined at a paper size. You can create individual annotative hatch objects as well as annotative hatch patterns.

The hatch pattern definitions stored in the acad.pat file contain information that indicates whether the pattern is annotative or non-annotative. When the selected hatch pattern is annotative, the Annotative checkbox in the Hatch and Gradient dialog box should be selected.

The orientation of annotative hatches always matches the orientation of the layout.
