Remove Removes from the boundary definition any of the objects that were
added previously.
Recreate Creates a polyline or region around the selected hatch or fill, and
optionally associates the hatch object with it.
Display Boundary Objects
Displays the boundary grip controls for the selected hatch that you can use
to grip-edit both the boundary and the hatch object.
When you select or use the Display Boundary Objects option to select a
non-associative hatch, the hatch boundary grips are displayed.
When you select an associative hatch, it displays only a single grip point of
the hatch. To display the boundary grip controls of the objects associated to
the hatch, use the Display Boundary Objects option. You can only edit an
associative hatch by grip-editing the associated boundary objects.

hatch object. This option is available only during hatch creation.
