Making custom Hatches patterns
Just like custom linetypes, you can use “hatch code” as well as an Express tool called Super Hatch to make custom Hatches in AutoCAD. In this section, we will make custom Hatches using Super Hatches.

In the following example, we will convert the drawing shown in the preceding diagram into a block that will be later used in the custom Hatch pattern:
