Please note that there is another component with the same name.

This Model Hatch Pattern allows you to retrieve elements from existing hatch patterns or create new patterns.

Components used: ①Circle ②Model Hatch ③Model Hatch Pattern

This time, we will set the pattern used for the hatching created within the circle into the Model Hatch Pattern.

Then connect the Circle to the Model Hatch(B).

Next, right-click the Model Hatch(P) and select Set Hatch patterns.

Then you can select the pattern to use for hatching.

This time, we selected Hatching 1.

Then, the hatching was created like this.

Then, since the data for the pattern you used is output from Model Hatch(P), connect it to Model Hatch Pattern.

Then, the hatch pattern was set in the Model Hatch Pattern.

In this way, you can set hatching pattern data in the Model Hatch Pattern.
