Create drawings from models (Creo Elements/Direct Annotation) > Configure Creo Elements/Direct Annotation > Creo Elements/Direct Annotation default settings > Set the default hatch pattern

You can set the default hatch pattern for newly created hatching. This default applies both to manually created hatching and to hatching added automatically by Creo Elements/Direct Annotation to section views.

Several standard patterns are provided in Creo Elements/Direct Annotation:

Steel

Iron

Copper

To set the default hatch pattern,

1. Click File > Settings > Hatch > Hatch Settings. The Default Settings table opens with Hatch settings.

2. In the Value column, double-click the setting or Hatch style settings you wish to change.

You can set the following offset values or style references:

• Hatch style settings

• Other ( Define hatch mode for automatic hatching)

• Settings proposals

◦ Distance

◦ Sub Pattern Distance

◦ Sub Pattern Offset

You can modify the properties of the default hatching in the Hatch Properties dialog box. These parameters are also used in the hatch pattern style reference.
