<ol><li> Select the object </li>
<li> In Combo View -&gt; Data: set Make Face to true to make sure the object will have a face to set the pattern</li>
<li> In Combo View -&gt; View -&gt; Pattern: specify a hatch pattern to fill the wire with</li>
<li> In Combo View -&gt; View -&gt; Pattern Size: specify the size of the hatch pattern </li></ol>
<p>Note:
</p>
<ul><li> The pattern is not visible when the item is either selected or pre-selected.</li>
<li> If you create a face with upgrade, the resulting object is not a Draft object anymore, and so patterns are not available</li>
<li> The <a href="Draft_Wire.html" title="Draft Wire">Draft Wire</a> can be closed and turned into a face directly when created, by checking the "Filled" checkbox.</li></ul>
