The command HATCHTOBACK has been introduced in response to an item on the AUGI wishlist. Similar
to TEXTTOFRONT, HATCHTOBACK sends hatches underneath all other objects in the drawing. “Send
Hatches to Back” is available on the Modify panel of the Home tab under the Draw Order flyout, along
with “Bring Text to Front” and “Bring Dimensions to Front.”

The new system variable MIRRHATCH enables you to mirror hatches while retaining their orientation.
(This is similar to the MIRRTEXT variable.) Set to 0, mirroring hatches maintains their original angle.
When MIRRHATCH is set to 1, the hatch angle mirrors along with the rest of the objects.

The Hatch Object Limit system variable (HPOBJWARNING) has been increased to 10,000 from 1,000 to
reflect the capabilities of current computers. When a large number of objects are selected for hatch
boundary calculations, it can result in slower performance. Thanks to increased hardware capabilities,
though, it now takes a much larger number of boundary objects to affect calculation speed. You may
now also set the value of the Hatch Object Limit yourself.
