Access to wall hatching tool defaults?

[Renerabbitt]

Love the wall hatching tool, I find it to be far more efficient than changing wall types for new walls, but I always end up changing the hatch to fill. I've even set up a wall hatching layer set with just wall hatching on so I can use the object painter and change to fill. All because I can't find the default dbx so I can change it as a global parameter. Anyone know how to accomplish this?

There is no default for the hatching - it is hardcoded.

Thanks Glen, had a feeling that was the case.

someday CA will get rid of all "hardcoding"

 

"everything" should be changeable via preferences or defaults

Even though there is no default, after you place it , you can select it and change the hatching. to select all wall hatching, just hold down the shift key while the wall hatching is active , draw a box around all the floor plan to select all hatching in the plan.

There you go,  Perry has a fairly easy solution to get what you want.

 

Nice job P.
