For standard-scale hatch patterns (those that do not have an AR- prefix), the density of the hatching varies according to the hatch scale and plot scale you use.
| Plot, Display, or View Scale | Hatch Scale | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1:2000 | 1 to 500 | Solid |
| 2000 | Lines clearly visible | |
| 15000 | Sparse, occasional lines | |
| 20000 | No hatch or one line only | |
| 1:10000 | 1 to 2500 | Solid |
| 10000 | Lines clearly visible | |
| 75000 | Sparse, occasional lines | |
| 100000 | No hatch or one line only |
You can use solid fills at any scale to fill an enclosed area.
