How do I import .pat files into draftsight?

Hello

I've downloaded hatch patterns as .pat files, but I can't seem to integrate them into draftsight. I tried via "load the application" and the "options" table in the "tools" tab, in vain. It only searches for .dll files. I read on this forum that it was possible, but I couldn't find the answer regarding the procedure to follow for their import. Can anyone help me? Thank you!

So you have applied the procedure indicated in the other question:

By filling in the path where the hatching is here:

So, I did well but I'll explain what happened for those who could use it:

 DF Explorer didn't seem to recognize the .pat files in the "  app data/roaming/etc... " . I had at the end of the path "specified file not found". So I tried to copy my files to the folder going through "program files/etc... ", but then he told me that I was denied access and that I could not copy anything in this folder. Well, I did it anyway! In the end, the message "specified file not found" was the same...

So I still went to see in the hatching if they didn't appear in "custom", and victory! they are happy there!

It was just a little sweat and annoyance. A big thank you .PL for the help, which may have avoided blood and tears!

Solved, then!
