Hello,
I would like to ask you a question. How I can make a pattern with diagonal lines?
I tried in so many ways but when I'm inserting the pattern, the line are not continous (one line is not continued with another one).
I don't want to use any hatch macros , I just want to make a full color pattern.
I know that maybe it's a very simple thing but till now I didn't figure it out how to do it.
Thank's a lot for all your work on this forum!

The answer is probably that you should design your pattern with vertical lines and then rotate the finished pattern, which will be easier than trying to design a seamless tile with the pattern already rotated ...
As you can see, I have picked a pattern with vertical lines and rotated it. The tile size is smaller than the object, but because the lines are parallel to the edges of the tile they do line up with the next tile so you do not see the joins.
The same should apply if you used your own bitmap, as long as you keep your lines vertical within the bitmap.
