When you divide new material to the material catalog, you can set automatic hatching in the .htc
files.
Remember that certain characters are not supported by the .htc
files.
The following characters are not supported in the material:
e.g. # Æ Ø / Å Ä Ö € $ £ ß Œ Ê Ï
Text in the .htc file: MISCELLANEOUS,INSULATIONØ20mm,HARD_INS1,1,,1
More common characters are supported:
e.g. ? @ ~ { } [ ] ! + = & ( )
Text in the .htc file:
MISCELLANEOUS,INSULATION(20mm),HARD_INS1,1,,1
Below you see the output of both material types ( Ø does not work but ( ) works).
