To match some of the properties from one wall
hatch to another:
■ On the Home tab, click Clipboard Panel >
Match Properties.
■ Select the wall hatch (1) between the two
doors as shown in the image below.
■ Right-click in the drawing area. Click
Settings.
■ In the Property Settings dialog box, make
sure the Hatch option is cleared and the
Color option is selected.
■ Click OK to exit the dialog box and return
to the drawing window.
■ Select the wall hatch (2) immediately
above the source hatch.
Only the basic properties of the hatch change.
Since the hatch style is not part of the basic
properties, the hatch's pattern stays the same.

To match hatch styles between wall hatches:
■ With the Match Properties command
started, right-click and click Settings to
open the Property Settings dialog box.
■ Select the Hatch option. Click OK.
■ In the drawing window, select the same
hatch as in the previous step.
This time, the hatch style changes along with
the basic properties.
■ Continue to select the rest of the
mismatched wall hatches.
■ Press ENTER to end the command.
6.
To match properties across dimensions:
■ On the Home tab, click Clipboard Panel >
Match Properties.
■ Select the overall dimension across the
bottom of the drawing as the source
object.
■ Select all of the dimensions across the top
of the drawing.
■ Press ENTER to exit the Match Properties
command.
