Lesson 41 | Hatching Objects
This lesson describes how to hatch and fill objects in your drawing using the Hatch and Gradient commands. In the following illustration, the roof has a roof tile hatch pattern and the walls a brick pattern. The background is composed of two gradient fills.
Hatching is used across all design disciplines to enhance drawing views, to clarify design features, and to show areas that were modified in drawings when you communicate with your clients. For example, you can add hatching when you draft roof or floor tiles or create section views of manufactured parts. You can also use hatching in construction, steelwork, or road design..
Warning!
Gradient Fills cannot be created with AutoCAD LT®.
