Can you make a solid hatch transparent?

[Mr.Alex]

Hi,

 

Can someone please tell me if you can you make a solid hatch transparent? Like in Photoshop?

I've done a bit of searching around, but from what I've found it isn't possible. Is that right?

 

Thank you,

 

Alex

try typing fill and then off

Thanks Dechal,

 

I've tried that, but I'm a bit confused about what it does. Does that turn the fill completely off?

 

I'm after a way to make something semi-transparent. Like a 'colour wash'. Sorry, I should have said that.

Solid hatches are solid, no transparency.You can use Draworder to bring objects on top of the hatch and use a color for the hatch that is screened in the Plot style table to make it appear transparent.

If you double click the solid hatch there is a "draw order" option to bring to front or send to back. As for transparent I'm not sure!

 

Regards,

 

Declan.

Thank you both, that's very helpful.
