Wenwen 1 Posted December 10, 2020 Hallo, ich use Vectorworks in english and german vision. In german vision, Vectorworks can convert line drawing into hatch. i can't find it in english vision. Why is that? for example: is it possible to create hatch from line drawing instead of those levels in the hatch editor except using tile? Quote Share this post Link to post
Tom W. 234 Posted December 10, 2020 No you can't do this in the English version of VW. But I am very intrigued to learn that you can do this in the German version. See recent thread below re making hatches: Can you tell me a bit more about the line drawing to hatch feature in the German software? It definitely creates a hatch yes? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post

As it is shown in that youtube video: draw any objects, convert them into lines, draw a frame over them and then click Änderung (Modify) --- in Schraffur umwandeln (convert into Hatch)----give it a name and correct settings. And then you have the hatch. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Tom W. 234 Posted December 10, 2020 Thanks @Wenwen I watched the video that's really cool! Do you know how long has this been a feature of the German VW? Quote Share this post Link to post
Andy Broomell 1,084 Posted December 13, 2020 This technology exists and it's not in the regular version of Vectorworks? Why in the heck not? 😄 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
