Is there any way that when you go to add a void to a siding hatch for a window or door that it will search and use the perimeter outline of the symbol?
No, but you can add a knockout entity that will knockout the hatch. It works really well.

If you do use Knockout you must pay very close attention to the order that it is in - whether included within a symbol or by itself.

Not sure what you mean by knockout. I was trying to see if I could use continuous search to create a void in a hatch pattern on a symbol in my case a window and a roof vent. I am guessing that it won't work and I have to use the create function to get a void of a symbol.
