Problems with hatch when objects are overlapping

Hi and happy new year,

I would like to hatch/fill the surround of two objects. The two objects are partly overlapping. The problem is, that the overlap region is also hatched/filled. Is there a way to fill the surround without filling overlap regions?



Thank you for your help.

Cheers,

Nico

I feel you have to cut the entities to allow a simple closed contour for hatching.

Here, you may have to cut the circle into 3 arcs, and also, the two intersecting straight lines.
