Problem with the Hatch Patterns for S1000D standards

Hello Everyone,

I am working on S1000D Standards. I have create some Hatch Patterns (view the iso file attached).

When I use these patterns it would be fine. Once I close the file and again open the same file I get the preview of the hatchings (view the attached jpeg file).

Could any one please suggest how to get rid of this problem as I would be using this patterns daily.

Finally I got the solution for the problem!!!

*Vladimir I tried using the macro which u suggested but it didnt work.

So I created a file with hatching all over the page size which i required and then saved the file in the patterns folder of isodraw. So I created some 10 files in different hatch patterns and now the problem is solved.

Hello,

Please look in this topic: http://communities.ptc.com/thread/38562

Thanks for the reply!!!

But the problem explained in the http://communities.ptc.com/thread/38562 is different. (the problem explained in the thread is due to improper tesselation).

But in my case It appears correct if I fill the hatch for the first time (tesselation is correctly calculated) and when i close and open the file it appears as shown in the jpeg file.

Did you executed the following rule in case of creation of hatching template (from here: http://communities.ptc.com/thread/38562)?

...Each lineend on one edge should match one on the aligned square.In your case, the diagonal lines have the same distance from each other, but a different distance from the corner of the square! If you need a hatching with a defined distance of the diagonal lines you might need to adjust the size of the square...

I found something strange while working to solve the above issue.

Step 1. Once I give a hatch which i had created it looks fine.

Step 2. Again when close and reopen the file it has the problem as in the jpeg preview. If i save as the same file with the same name and again open the same file it looks good.

I am meaning that Every alternative time i save the file it is showing the error. and the other alternative time it is showing correctly..

Could any one please suggest

Try to use a macro (http://communities.ptc.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/182842-38438/HatchGenExample.txt.zip) to create a new hatching template and test it.
