The Hatch style specifies hatch attributes, for example, pattern or scale. If you edit a hatch style, all existing hatch objects that use the style change (only your overrides are kept).
Notes:
- The layer on which the hatch object is created defines the hatch line weight and color. You can override these hatch attributes for hatch objects in the drawing.
- Object Defaults set the default Hatch style for Section Hatch and Sketch Hatch objects
