I have openened a DWG file made in AutoCAD LT and there are no bounding boxes around all my my separate hatches. I have tried going into to prefermeces and changing the snaps/ pointers and there doesn't seem to be an option for bounding boxes. When I click on anything else I get normal selection snaps so that I'm able to stretch a line for example but not the same with hatching.

I am also unable to trim a hatch.

Is it because I need to re-allocate the boundary as it can't find it?

Please help! It's so frustrating!
