HPLINETYPE (System Variable)

Controls how non-continuous linetypes are displayed in hatch objects.

Type:Integer
Saved in:Registry
Initial value:OFF

Performance and memory enhancements for hatches were added in AutoCAD 2015-based products. Hatch objects with non-continuous linetypes assigned to them do not benefit from these enhancements. It is recommended that you choose a predefined hatch pattern that was defined with a non-continuous linetype, rather than assigning a non-continuous linetype to a hatch object.

OFF or 0 Displays linetypes in predefined and user-defined hatch objects as continuous only, regardless of the assigned linetype
ON or 1 Applies non-continous linetypes to hatch objects (legacy behavior) at the cost of hatch performance
