What I'd like you to do now is make sure in your layer dropdown that table inlay is your current drafting layer, like so. And then what we're going to do is we're going to draw a line from the midpoint snap there to the midpoint snap there. Press enter to finish once you've drawn it. Now we're going to be taking a look in this video at how we define boundaries and boundary sets to create hatches in a drawing. Now, our table inlay is going to have two different patterns, one each side, hence the dividing line we've just drawn. So zoom in a bit closer so you can see your table a bit more clearly, and then what we're going to do is we're going to use the table inlay layer to create…
