hatching in assembly drawing
(OP)
can i change the scale or density of the hatch in an assembly drawing or draft? some of the parts look correctly hatched others you can barely see the lines they are spaced so far apart when i print it

Select the relevant hatching and then you can adjust spacing in the bar above.

RE: hatching in assembly drawing
When you print a drawing at a smaller scale (say an A0 printed at A3)the hatching will not look the same as on-screen.
In cases like this check the option "Scale Line Types" on your print dialog and the spacing will be scaled accordingly.

Thanks
RE: hatching in assembly drawing
For small parts it sometimes selects to big a spacing.
As alluded to above the spacing you set is the spacing printed 1 to 1, not the spacing you usually see on screen.

P.S. Yes, I know I'm kind of fussy. But so you know, I still love the software.

I'll dig through help and post questions here before phoning them, not sure why.
Another colleague is the opposite, I swear he calls them once a week, sometimes more.

But I call my reseller, not UGS' help line. They are really helpful, and answer quickly. The salesguy even encouraged me to call them as often as I wish. I hope my boss will keep the maintenance next year.

On the plus side I've discovered a lot of useful things by chance when going through help looking for something else.
