Couple of minor drip equipment complaints...

Area for dripline hatch #11 is still broken. It inserts at a very small scale, which I have to go in and fix every time I make a change (I have lots of drawings where I use this pattern). It's my favorite one! But I've been using others for the time being. None of the others have this issue.

Operation indicators, such as the Hunter Eco Indicator: Can you please make this item behave just like the flush valve symbol? Currently it inserts at too large a scale (I have to reduce it by 70% or so), and then you can't just drop them in throughout the drawing because they automatically get numbered. The flush valve symbol is simple, just the symbol at the correct scale, with an "F" character, and you can keep dropping them in. How about having the operation indicators just have an "O" or "OI", be scaled a little smaller, and get rid of the automatic incremental numbering?

As I said, minor complaints...

Thanks!

Tom,
You say the hatch is still not coming in correctly, but not sure what you did to try and fix the hatch in the first place. Please expound on what you did, or what steps you took previously.

As for the indicators, it sounds like something may be wrong with your block if you have to scale it every time, but we will check it out. You are also more then welcome to make your own custom block to function exactly how you would like.
Hi Jake,

As for that drip hatch, one day it just started inserting at a ridiculously dense scale, so much so that Cad turned off the high quality geometry setting. I sent a ticket in in May, and Jesse wrote back saying that you were working on releasing new versions of all the drip hatches, and that the issues with #11 would eventually be fixed with the new updates. It never was. None of the other hatches have this issue. It doesn't matter if I have the "drip line scaled at row spacing" box checked or not. I have to select it and change the scale in properties. I have to block edit the Schedule, too, since it shows up the same way there.

Jesse did send some instructions for messing around in the Land FX hatches folder, and deleting and replacing that pattern, but I didn't bother since he said the updates would eventually download into the folder.

But if this will still fix things, I'll do so. Let me know.

Thanks!
Tom,

The few errant hatch patterns were indeed corrected, you can manually download the latest hatch library by following the steps here:

https://www.landfx.com/kb/details-graphics-issues/hatches/7245-download-manually

You can also place and edit any drip hatch from the F/X Site ribbon, Hatch tool. I show Dripline-11 placing fine from there, and showing a Scale of 0.0350 when I edit it in the dialog.

Jesse sent me instructions, which I followed, and things now work great. Thanks!
