Hello,
I am trying to create hatching in Indesign but I'm struggling.
Is there a tool, a trick, or alternatively a plug-in to do this?
Thank you in advance

re-
…of hatching…?…
• To draw them: pencil tool, pen, line (all drawing tools): you can “set” the type of [contour] = choose hatching (three or four different ones). That is to say, once one of these tools is selected, you click on the dropdown menu located under the contour thickness one -in the control palette-: and you draw…
You also have the option to select your line (once drawn) and vary its type (same modus operandi).
• To underline or strikethrough text using hatching: see the underlinings or strikethrough texts, for the ¶ : the lines (same: you change the [type] of underlining -by default it’s [solid].

…to obtain “thick” hatchings: choose a very large thickness.
Good work.
