I suppose you could use WIPEOUT, but probably not the best solution.

is there some express tool for this

[sw33ney]

i sorted it out, easily by just drawing the blocks first and then hatching around them:oops: :oops: thanks lol

[Came]

if you come across some tool to fix it let us-me now

 

 

 

 

SORRY about that one

[Came]

Well you can do that

 

let as now if you find some way to fix it without drawing again.

 

It would be nice

 

 

 

SORRY about that one

Did you try trimming the hatch using the block's entities as the trim edges?

^^ sometimes the simplest solutions are the best

I couldn't think of that

Don't know if i understood your problem correctly, but if you want to have a block on top of a hatch, and not to see the hatch nderneath, you can always use "bedit" command and edit the block by putting a white solid fill underneath all the other block components, this way, when you print the drawing on white paper it will seem that you don't have any hatch undeneath the block, but in reality there will be, this will not affect the hatch AREA properties in case you need to preserve them. A very primitive solution, but it comes in handy when I ned to put up road signs in my drawings
