To Hatch an Area Defined by Data Points

  1. Select the Hatch Area tool ( Drawing > Annotate > Patterns ).


  2. Click the Points icon in the tool settings.

  3. Enter a data point to define each vertex of an imaginary shape that encloses the area.

    The imaginary shape is dynamically displayed.

  4. Reset to finish (and hatch the area).
