Scale Factor for Hatch

Command affected:  STLSTUD

Enter the scale factor that you would like to use for the above hatch pattern. If you would like to have the hatch pattern scale with the scale of the drawing (recommended) check the "Adjust" box. This helps maintain a uniformity in details no matter what the scale. When adjusting the scale factor with the drawing's scale, the value entered should be the value you would use if the drawing were full size (scale factor of 1.0).
