HPLINETYPE (System Variable)

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

Type:Switch
Saved in:Registry
Initial value:0

Performance and memory enhancements for hatches were added in AutoCAD 2015-based products. Hatch patterns using non-continuous linetypes 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 pattern.
