Match Point
You can set a match point to be used for all subsequent hatching. One hatch line will be aligned to pass through the match point. The match point need not necessarily lie inside an area to be hatched; in this case an imaginary extension of the hatch lines would pass through the hatch point.
Following figure shows the hatch pattern aligned with an external match point.
Hatch Pattern Aligned with Match Point
To set the hatch match point:
1. Click Enter in Hatch.
2. Click Enter Point in Hatch. Then specify a point with you want to align the hatch to be created.
3. Specify a point inside the area to be hatched.
One hatch line of all subsequent hatching will pass through the new match point.
