Hi, I'm running AutoCAD 2007. I'm wondering if there's a way to make a hatch 3D. I have boundary points connected by 3D polylines. The boundaries show as 3D when looking from the side but any hatch I fill them with defaults to zero elevation. So far I haven't found a way to twist the hatch to follow 3D. Is there a way? TIA.

You can use aligned UCS for planar 3D hatches. For more general 3D objects, you can rather use materials (textures) and rendering.

Ok, thanks, that would work too.
