Cross hatch problem

Hi, I've created a cross section view of a stainless steel part. I have selected the material for the part as stainless steel and checked the cross hatch pattern is OK. However in the drawing the cross hatching does not appear and clicking on "Hatch" in the drawing Annotations bar doesn't seem to make any difference. I have done this before without any problems. Any ideas on how to get the hatching to appear?

The clinch nuts were missing from the files. After I removed the missing parts from the assembly, saved file and re-opened the drawing, the cross hatching appeared.

Maavhamt, just a helpful hint. When you need to upload an assembly first save your file as Package file. (Menu File>Package>Create OR Gem>Package>Create) That will pull all the required parts in one file, kind of like a Zip file for CAD. that makes in a whole lot easier for you to upload, someone else to download and and open your model for investigation.
