Displays specific descriptive information and attributes of the selected fill style.

Fill color

Specifies the current fill color.

Fill transparency (%)

Specifies the degree of transparency for the fill color. Defining a high degree of transparency for the fill color makes it more "see through", and any background pattern will be more visible. Conversely, a low degree of transparency makes the fill color less "see through"; consequently, the pattern is less visible.

Pattern

Color

Specifies the color for the current pattern.

Transparency (%)

Specifies the degree of transparency for the pattern. When you define a high degree of transparency for the pattern, it becomes less visible against the fill color. If you define a low degree of transparency for the pattern, it stands out against the fill color and is more visible.

Units

Specifies the geometric definition for the linear pattern that occurs in the fill style. World units define the width of the linear pattern in geometric space; Paper units define the width of the linear pattern in the fill style on paper. Changing the drawing scale has no effect on styles defined in Paper units; however, it does change styles defined in World units.

Rotation

Sets the angle of the pattern lines in the active unit. Zero degrees is horizontal to the x axis, and the angle (A) increases in a counterclockwise direction with zero on the positive side (B) of the x axis. If you type a negative value, the software displays the equivalent positive value.

Spacing

Sets the spacing between the pattern lines to control the vertical distance of lines in the fill style.

Scale

Specifies how much the software reduces or enlarges the fill pattern. The scale controls the vertical distance and the size of the dash and gap of the linear pattern associated with the fill style. The scale value must be greater than 0.

Width

Sets the line width of the pattern lines.
