Depends on how far you want to go. In that I am talking about just using normal hatch patterns as compared to raster images (.jpgs and such) as hatch patterns. It also depends on what version of AutoCAD you have. AutoCAD r2004 and above can also use gradients fills as hatch patterns. To use raster files as hatch patterns you will have to have the Express Tool/Bonus Tools installed.

Sure if that's what you want. You ca also use many of the hatch patterns in Acad or many of the hundreds that you can download for free. Don't forget about the "Super Hatch" tool in the Bonus Tools Wink

Good luck Smile

BTW: www.cadtutorforum.net is a good place for AutoCAD help. I think that it is down right now but check back later.
