Hello,
I’m trying to make a hatched pour to minimise copper tracing (I’m using the voltera v-one machine).
However, it keeps filling in sections, and none of the fill-region properties seem to stop it from doing so.
Attached is the photo:
Thanks!

When in Google I write hatched pour and then select Graphic I see completely different picture than your.
The hatched pour (I have never used) seem to have about 80% of copper where it is hatched and having regions with 100% copper don’t look unusual. It seems that you are trying to have hatched pour with 2…5% of copper what probably is not what hatched pour was intended to and in your case regions with 100% copper look abnormal.
Hatching can’t be used everywhere, just in the open sections away from other parts. Otherwise, pads would rarely actually connect to the zone.
Also, I don’t understand your premise. If you are using a Voltera and making conductive-ink boards, a super sparse hatch like this is not going to function as a plane anyway. Why not just delete the zone and route your ground net using tracks?
