Smooth lines & Curves in Hatch

[CraigN]

I'm running ADT2007 - When I hatch an area the results do not look like hatch preview. "Gravel" & "Wood" look like straight lines not curved and joined. What setting needs to be adjusted??

This happens when you hatch an area a loooong way from the origin point, 0,0......Its because when the hatch was defined it was probably only to 2 dec places...that error expands the further away from 0,0 you go.

The answer is very simple.....

In the Hatch & Gradient dialogue, go to hatch origin and tick both Specified origin and default to boundary extents.
