Need help with hatching in 2007, getting annoyed!

[Fire_col]

Now then,

This has been bugging for a little while now. Normally when I would double click a hatch on my drawing it would open the hatch dialogue and I could then use the exact same hatch in a new boundary if required. But here at my new office for some reason when I double click the hatch it selects everything relating to the hatch i.e lines or rectangles, and opens the properties dialogue instead. I can't figure out how to stop it from doing this.

Please help me it's really getting on my wick!

 

Cheers.

Is Hatch Edit specified as the Double-click action for Hatch in your CUI?

Hadn't checked before, but yeah it's there.

Are you sorted here Col?

 

If your hatch is associative and you have the associative hatch box checked as below, then selecting the hatch will select all geometry around it, as you describe in your first post.

Nice one Bonehead! I didn't realise that's what was going on in options, I assumed that was supposed to enable associative hatching.

Cheers Buddy.
