Hatches which display at the same scale in layout regardless of the detail view scale would be handy in the same way that text which auto-scales is. Maybe more so because objects’ section hatch properties can only be set to one scale and one layer.
Thank you. I presume your request so that you can have consistent drawing at different scales?
Added a feature request…
Yes. Perhaps as an option, as with text scaling.
Wow! That’s an amazingly fast incorpration of a feature request! Well done! Thankyou.
Is that a setting assignable to a particular hatch (which I seek) or a global setting for all hatches (which is still useful but a less versatile arrangement.)
It is a global setting for a given document
Here is a little more detail on the Hatch Scale option that Steve posted.
I have also attached a model for you to test drive.

This what the attach model looks like with hatch scale disabled:
In Options -> Hatch -> Enable Hatch Scale.
All the hatch objects will look consistent in details of differing scales:
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,

Yes, that’s what I’m looking to accomplish with most hatches. (Some it would sometimes be good to leave as scaling with the view, but it’s okay.)
