Autohatch between closed boundaries, layer dependant

[Brad c]

Is it possible to create a routine to autohatch once a closed boundary appears, basically linetypes are inserted from tool palette on certain layers and once they are inserted i have to hatch the boundaries manually, is it possible to hatch it automatically once the boundary has been created rather than manually doing it?

AutoLISP includes a type of object called a reactor. You can create a database reactor to fire when you create a polyline on a specific layer, and program it to hatch that polyline.

 

I've never used a reactor in AutoLISP, but they're useful in other languages like SQL. Someone else may have the time to write and debug that code for you, or you can do it yourself if you have some experience with AutoLISP.

Bit hard to tell what is going on under the thick red line. You can in a lisp or at command level do Hatch "last".
