Export till CAD and hatch question

Question

Hi!
I am using the Export to CAD GP-tool and the reserved CAD fields to ensure that presentation will be as I want on the CAD side.
I got symbols and line stiles to work as I want and also that objects are put on the correct layer.

But I don't get it to work for my polygons as I want. Polygons are exported as closed polyline but without pattern(hatch). I would like it to be a solid hatch with a color.

How do I do that?

Using ArcGIS Pro v.3.1

Let us know if you ever figured this out. I'm also trying to get filled polygons but having no luck.

Hey Mike,

Ah thank you for explaining, unfortunately, I don't have any experience with going GIS to CAD so this might be something to put a post up on any forms relating to your CAD software.

If the hatch is showing fine within ArcGIS then it might be a defect or limitation of the CAD software, so if possible I would test this on different platforms.

Sorry I couldn't help further on this,

David

I see that I was a bit unclear. I am NOT going from CAD to GIS.
I am going from GIS to CAD. I already have a polygon feature class in GIS that I try to export to CAD.
But I don't know how to use the CAD reserved fields to make it SOLID or with a Hatch at the CAD side.
Right know I only get a closed LWPolyline.

Hope this makes the question a bit clearer.
