  1. Hello All: I'm fairly new to CAD, using Vectorworks 11.0.1 on a G5 running OS 10.3.6. I'm having a problem hatching two walls in my drawing. The walls that are giving me issues are fairly complex (the back of a theater with a curved wall), a curved surface and lots of angles / inner wall voids, etc. Despite the complexity in this area of the drawing, I have one complete wall that is enclosed throughout its boundaries / intersections. Since the wall was drawn with the line tool / arc tools, it is not an "object", and thusly, I can't use the hatch command to fill it in. I've tried "composing" the lines and arcs of the wall (this worked for hatching several of my walls without arcs), but Vectorworks is taking the midpoint of the arc of one of the curved walls as a boundary for composing, and the entire arc is hatched as a result. So, what to do? I'm POSITIVE that the wall segments are all touching, and if only VW had a "paint bucket" like I'm used to in Photoshop, I could just click the space between the lines, hatch, and be done (by the way, I did try the paint bucket "put down attributes" tool, but again, since the space between my lines isn't an object, it won't work). Here's a look at the wall segment I'm having trouble with: HELP!
