Hello Everybody,

How would I go about hatching a curved wall in DataCAD?

Thanks in advance for the help,

CADwk

Go to Utility/Hatching and set up how you'd like your hatching (associative? outline? etc.), then pick Boundary and either pick Cont. Search (and pick a point within the confines of where you want the hatch), or start picking the end points (once you pick one end point there will be two new menu items - 2 Pt Arc and 3 Pt Arc) and continue on from there.

You can also manually use arcs as you pick the hatch boundary; I usually use 3-Point arcs. This can also be done after the fact, with the Polyline Edit menu in Curves.
