'Datum Target' Custom symbol filled areas do not appear correctly filled anymore (see picture)...
Any reason/fix for that?

Looks like someone has edited the templates Drafting Preferences. Open the original template files and see what the hatching looks like. If it's not what you expect, edit it and save the file and start over.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
 
John, where may I find those 'templates Drafting Preferences' ?
 
if you add such a symbol in the insert dialog there is an option says part default or definition use defintion and the problem is solved. For John I liked to have this setting controlled from the customer defaults
hope it helps
 
Preferences are used so that they can OVERIDE Customer Defaults, which some organizations do not allow their people to change (Preferences can NEVER be 'hidden' from the user).
