I cannot see a bug report thread topic so I am placing this here.

Having issues with a hatch pattern being saved to the tool palette, and staying there after program restart. (all shown in the LINKED video)

Windows 11, Bricscad V25.1.07.1

    Hello.

    The issue has been reported and it is under investigation.

    For now, a hatch is kept in the tool palette only if there is a corresponding .pat file in one of the support folders.

    Thanks for the input Virgil,

    The hatch pattern in question is located in the "default.pat" file that is located in a support folder.

    That does not appear to be the current issue.

    Hello.

    Thank you for the feedback.

    You could check where the STIPPLE pattern is defined, in what file.

    If it is defined only in default.pat and you create a drawing from a metric template, the pattern will not be found and will not be shown in the tool palette.

    This is the only way I could reproduce the issue.

    Metric templates use iso.pat.
    Imperial templates use default.pat.

    Something useful could be to define custom patterns in custom files, to avoid the need of a double definition, iso and default.
