The problem:
I create similar assemblies very often, and make section views. Going through every time to retrieve the material for each part's hatching takes quite a long time. Then I have to edit the spacing, the angle, and so on.
What I'm looking for:
A way that I can set the material, crosshatch pattern, spacing, and angle in the part mode. That way, once the assembly is brought into the drawing, all parts have their specific cross hatch pattern, and I won't have to set the cross hatch options. (Maybe just a little tweaking if patterns look too close)
Is there a way to do this? Or am I hoping for too much from Proe?
Yes, from memory this can indeed be done in the model.
I'm in Creo now, but try something like View Manager -> Sections -> Redefine... and look for 'hatch style' or similar from there.
