Hi,

such functionality is not available. Can you add some picture explaining what you need?

Applying Different Hatch for different features of a single part is possible only Creo 7.0 and in Higher versions of Creo.

If you are talking about something like this:

Create you cross section view. Edit each part.

There may be simpler ways to do this, but this is how I get it done.

If those are nuts and bolts shown in the cross section, they should not have hatching per ASME Y14.3-2003 section 4.3.1:

When the cutting plane lies along the longitudinal axis of items, such as shafts, bolts, nuts, rods, rivets, keys, pins, screws, ball
or roller bearings, gear teeth, spokes, and the like, these parts are not sectioned except when internal construction is shown.

I'm less worried about x-hatching and more worried about how your gonna put it together and take it apart!!!😀😁🤣😂

If I wasn't guilty of it, it wouldn't be so funny!!!

You can add sketches to your part and x-hatch the sketches. It's a convoluted process in Creo 6, I'm guessing it hasn't changed in later builds.

Create a closed sketch of the area you would like to show hatching. Complete the feature creation. Then go back and edit definition on the sketch feature, Click on "sketch setup" then the properties tab, and click the box for "add hatching lines", you can control the hatch with the values there or you can control them in the drawing, with the more normal x-hatch edit tools. You can't see the x-hatch until you complete the sketch feature completely, again.
