So what I can do here is I can go up here like so and I can say to AutoCAD, create separate hatches or not.

Now, ideally I want all of this to be one hatch pattern. Now the lovely thing about AutoCAD is I can hover over an area where I might pick points, and you can see there that it's obviously letting me know as you can see where I'm going to hatch. If it isn't, just use the up and down arrows to find it like so. It should be there in your pattern panel. I'm going to make sure that I'm using the ANSI31 hatch pattern. Now that's normally the default and in this case, that's absolutely fine. Now what it'll prompt me to do is pick an internal point. I'm going to go over to the draw panel now on the home tab on the ribbon, click on the fly-out, and select hatch, like so. And I ideally need some hatching this end and this end to show where we are slicing through the metal plate. So that slotted hole is represented by that line and that line. The section view I'm cutting down the middle. So the side view, I'm looking at the side of the plate. And that takes me back to my section and side view where we were before. So if I just do a zoom previous now, I can do this from the nav bar, like so, zoom previous. And the section is going along this horizontal center line. If I zoom out a little bit, there's the metal plate there, there's the plan view.

Now those solid lines indicate a break where the object has been sectioned. Now you'll notice we've got some solid lines here. So we're looking at the side of our metal plate there, and you can see the hidden detail there obviously showing any holes going through this particular metal plate.

So the first thing we're going to do is place some hatching on the section view. Make sure you go to the home tab on the ribbon and on the layer dropdown, make sure that you are using the hatching layer, like so. Make sure that you are in the model tab looking at the section in side view, like you can see on my screen at the moment. And what we're going to do in this particular case is look at hatching and gradient fills. We have touched on hatching a little bit in previous videos. We're starting a new chapter now and we're going to take a look at hatching and gradient in AutoCAD in a bit more detail.
