Autocad hatch issues?

1. Incorrect HPMAXLINES system variable value.
2. Incorrect FILLMODE system variable value.
3. Too many, too complex, or corrupted hatch patterns in the drawing.
4. Corrupt drawing file.
5. Corrupt AutoCAD profile.
6. Bad installation of AutoCAD.
7. Graphics card issue.
8. Corrupted viewport.

Likewise, why is hatch not working in AutoCAD? Under the Display tab in OPTIONS, check Apply solid fill, then press OK. Alternately, enter FILLMODE at the Command line and give it a value of 1. Turn on the hatch quick preview and fill mode (see Hatch preview does not appear for a selected area in AutoCAD). Repair the file (see How to repair corrupt AutoCAD files).

Amazingly, how do I fix hatching lag in AutoCAD?

1. Repair the file.
2. Replace or block hatch areas that have been exploded.
3. Check for large coordinates in the drawing.
4. Freeze or turn off any Xrefs that overlap the area to be hatched.
5. Freeze or turn off any complex geometry, such as furniture or complex blocks.

Correspondingly, why does my hatch keep disappearing? Causes: HPMAXLINES is set too low. The hatch object is not using the SOLID pattern, and the scale chosen for the hatch object renders the pattern too sparse to see within the hatch boundary.

Similarly, how do I reset my hatch in AutoCAD? Click on the a corner of your hatch as shown in Figure 2 above and watch your hatch pattern reset and become corrected. You can also select Click to set origin in the hatch pattern creation menu. You can access this menu by simply typing HE at the command prompt and selecting your pattern.Solution: To avoid this, makes sure you check the following: When selecting a point inside a closed geometry, make sure that the geometry does not have overlapping areas. If there are islands/holes in the geometry to hatch, test if the hatch is created and the islands are removed.

How do I enable hatching in AutoCAD?
