NOTE To prevent accidental creation of an enormous number of hatch lines, the
maximum number of hatch lines created in a single hatch operation is limited.
This limit prevents memory and performance problems. However, you can change
the maximum number of hatch lines with the HPMAXLINES system variable.
Similarly the number of enclosed areas in single hatch is limited by the
HPMAXAREAS system variable.

Set Property Overrides for Hatches and Fills
Control the default color, layer, and transparency of hatch objects separately
from other objects.
Hatch objects have an additional capability that is not available with other
types of objects. You can specify which layer, color, and transparency settings
will be automatically applied to each new hatch object, regardless of the current
property settings. This can save you time.
For example, you can specify that all new hatch objects are automatically
created on a specified layer regardless of the current layer setting.
NOTE If you do not want to override the current property settings, select Use
Current for the hatch’s layer, color, and transparency settings.
