Hatching is still something of a 'hit-and-miss' business for me. I have tried the extra Hatch Profile layer approach and at first it seemed to work OK, but just now I couldn't solid fill a rectangular contour. Checked all components (on my Hatch Profile layer) - all seemed OK.Failed again so drew a circle in which I found both Solid Fill and any hatch pattern worked OK. A hexagon was also OK, so I drew a rectangle but for some reason no solid fill or hatch pattern would work. Tried re-scaling, re-drawing rectangles etc, but all to no avail.
I'm baffled! Can anyone help please? Using Qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof on Ubuntu 9.04.

Hatching Problem
Andrew,
Thanks for reply. Opened new drawing, all OK, then went back to my original drawing's Hatch Profile layer.
ALL contours respond OK to hatches and solid fill!......So what on earth was happening yesterday?
Should the problem re-occur, what is the best course of action?
Your point re posting in the wrong thread is noted. Left wrist now stinging!
