Hi Daniel - if I make a Hatch, with History, I can change the hatch pattern (scale or angle) or change to a different pattern and not break the history - editing the curve edits the new pattern… so I guess I am not picking up what it is you want to do.
when history is turned OFF and I select the hatch(that was created with history), and try to change it (clicking on another pattern) history turns itself back on (status bar icon lights up) and remains like that when continuing with work.
Darn… how weird. Here there is a moments delay when switching patterns but it does happen fairly quickly. I’ll see what I can find out. @dk2079 Got it- Lock Children is set, I bet…
wasn’t aware of that behavior, makes sense although for a hatch,not sure but leaving the properties editable might be helpful.
btw. what I still don’t quite understand is why history turns on in the statusbar when selecting&editing the hatch. I think it is a bug, as that does not happen with other objects created with history when history is turned off.
It does that here too, it does seem buggy. I agree that editing the propoerties of the hatch should be allowed since it does not interfere with History. You can change the color for example, with history locking on.
