Use this procedure to specify the hatching for display components of a space style. Space hatching is displayed only in display representations that represent a Plan view.
The following hatch components are available for spaces:
- Base hatch: the hatch component for the base boundary of a space.
- Net hatch: the hatch component for the net boundary of a space.
- Usable hatch: the hatch component for the usable boundary of a space.
- Gross hatch: the hatch component for the gross boundary of a space.
- Cut Plane hatch: the hatch for the object cut plane. This cut plane is different from the calculation cut planes you can set for 3D freeform spaces.
- Calculation Cut Plane Hatch (1 and 2): If you define calculation cut planes for a 3D freeform space, you can add a hatch to the calculation cut plane boundary.
