Modifying the Angle of Rotation of a Hatch Pattern
The hatch_pattern_auto_rotation configuration option determines the angle of rotation for newly created cross-section hatch patterns. You can select the angle rotation from a set of predefined values available in the Creo Parametric Options.
The possible angle variations that you can assign to different sectioned components are:
Six Angles—Limits the rotation angles to 6 variations: 30, 45, 60, 120, 135, and 150 degrees.
Two Angles—Limits the rotation angles to 2 variations: 45 and 135 degrees.
Automatic—Does not limit the number of rotation angle variations.
For PAT hatch patterns, you can use the Recreate Hatch Angles command to set the angle of rotation according to the value set for the configuration option hatch_pattern_auto_rotation. You can access Recreate Hatch Angles command from the right-click menu for the selected hatch pattern. This command is not available for XCH hatch patterns.
