Materials having annotative hatches

Hi
I am searching for the options to make hatches work annotative in generated sections.
Is this possible?

  • Sorry to distract,
    as I don't know the solution.

    But when I looked your screen shot I was shocked how bad the
    dark mode works in this case. The contrast of the Window top bars
    destroys everything and distracts from actual content.

  • Sometimes this line between viewport is gone also.

  • ^ noticed that in the past with Mac Versions too.
    But didn't use multiple view panes since years.

    But for your initial question,
    can you elaborate a bit what you mean by hatches
    in physical materials should "work annotative"

    Hans,
    what exactly do you want to achieve? The hatch scale is set by the section scale so 2 sections with a different scale on one layout should have the same hatch appearance.

  • Change of scale leads to different hatching.
  • To have different Hatches depending on scale ?
    Like for standard plans, details, overviews ?

    Or according to new feature of LOD.

    I tested only a little bit,
    but my approach was always to get some simplified look in
    Sections without any Hatches, just black or gray color fill.
    I tried to play with Section Properties and in Material Settings.
    But wasn't able to avoid Hatches for cutting areas at that time.

    Could Section Style edits help in your situation ?

  • No not LOD or any of that.
    I would like to have the ability to use multiple viewports on the same generated section.
    I order to do so the hatches should be annotative. The same old principle like texts and dims.

  • Hi Hans this is indeed not possible with the same sectionblock. A new section on another scale has to be made to obtain this.

  • Ok Piet, Thanks for confirming the limitation.
    I do not understand why a generated section can't have a annotative hatch definition.
    Its sound like a 'missing tickbox' to me
