	How to set the Select objects mode for the Hatch command?
	If you need to change (preset) the default selection mode for the `HATCH` command - not by picking a point but by selection of the border objects - you can do this by changing the command icon in the ribbon. Use the CUI dialog to change the hatch icon/command to call `_HATCH _Sel` instead of the default `_HATCH`. So the new format of the command will read: ^C^C_hatch _sel
