Normally, a hatch pattern consists of lines at certain angles and distances. These patterns are supported by the system and angles and distances can be changed in the default file. User-defined hatch patterns can, however also be created and used. This is done by the 2D Drafting functions in the system. Before it is saved, it must belong to the same level 3 subpicture. The function Tools > Subpicture > Save as std hatch pattern is used for saving a pattern. A standard book is used for this purpose (standard book No. 2). When a pattern shall be updated, the pattern is added to the current drawing as a level 3 subpicture with the function Insert > Hatch Pattern.
