[afrazawan]

I have many Hatch pattern in my dwg. is there any LISP if i slect any Hatch then it will give me area in table or what ever please

Use the "DATAEXTRACTION" command and select just the hatches and geometry AREA.

[ReMark]

Yes, there are custom lisp routines that will extract the area of hatches. They are simple to find.

You might want to consider using

You would need to create closed polylines in order for it to work though,

but once done, it looks like it would be perfect.

 

If you have never used any of Lee's fantastic lisps,

you should take a look on his website, as it is a real goldmine,

and he offers them free of charge.

 

Thanks Lee!

I had a similar question a year ago. See http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?76645-Display-hatch-area-as-a-label for multiple lisp codes that will label areas of hatches easily and display them on screen.
