Trim an existing hatch to objects that cross the edges of the hatch. After
trimming, erase the objects.
Define hatch boundary points with the Draw option of the -HATCH
command.
To hide a hatch's boundary objects, assign the boundary objects to a different
layer than the hatch object, and then turn off or freeze the layer of the
boundary objects. This method maintains hatch associativity.

In drawings that contain many hatch objects, use the HATCHTOBACK
command to display all hatch objects behind all other objects.
