Aligning wall component hatches

[Jim Smith]

Is there a way to have wall components illustrate with Hatches align to the direction of a Wall? Is the alternative to use several wall types with different Hatches or use a Texture?

Not a hundred percent on the objective of your question, but I'd avoid having several walls as a means of representing a single entity.

 

The hatches defined in wall components will stay relative to the wall's direction in plan, if the hatch has Rotate In Wall selected.

 

 

 

And if your wall components are visible (with different heights) in elevation, you can give each component an individual texture with a Surface Hatch defined and set Use component textures as the default in the Wall Style's Texture dialogue.

Thanks! I knew in the back of my mind that there was something like this. Much appreciated!
