KM Hatch Fill

An Inkscape extension that fills closed shapes with parallel hatch lines. The extension generates vector line patterns inside shapes that can be used for engraving fills, texturing surfaces, or creating visual effects.

Manual Installation

1. Create the subdirectory km-hatch/ in your Inkscape extensions folder:
   • Linux: ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/
   • Linux (Flatpak): ~/.var/app/org.inkscape.Inkscape/config/inkscape/extensions/
   • Linux (Snap): ~/snap/inkscape/current/.config/inkscape/extensions/
   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/org.inkscape.Inkscape/config/inkscape/extensions/
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\inkscape\extensions\
2. Copy all files from this repository into your km-hatch/ directory.
3. Restart Inkscape. The extension appears under Extensions > Knox Makers > Laser > Hatch Fill.
