Hi all.

Here is a goofy glitch we found today... One of the guys in the office was wanting to rotate a partial plan with some hatch on it (for better orientation on the sheet), but when he did, the hatch went all funky. It seems that it has something to do with whether the "Locked" in the hatch menu is turned on when hatching the polyline ... and maybe something to do with stuff being copy/pasted into the file, since I couldn't duplicate it in a new file.

The original hatch/polyline (with "Outline" turned on) looks like this...

After rotating the polyline/hatch, it looks like this...

I can see your pictures Steve. But when I tried to repeat your drawing, I did not get the same results. The patterns rotated fine whether locked or not.

Hi Josh.

I'm still at the office, but took a look at the pics using IE ... yup, black. Ha! It figures!

<--- See picture (avatar) ... Nah-Na-Nah-Na-Naahh-Naahh!!! That's what you get for using IE ... HeeHee!

My default browser has been Firefox for a while now. It even looks right in old Netscape 4.7.

Interesting. I see all of Neil's pics. I wonder if it's a bit depth support issue with IE.

Hello Steve,

I could see all the time your images. I do use only PNG format files too.

And the problem that you've found, I couldn't reproduce it here.

Any other tip ?

Thanks,
Miguel
