    HatchStyle Property
    In This Topic
    The pattern type of the fill effect.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
 
Public Property HatchStyle As HatchStyle

instance.HatchStyle = value
 
value = instance.HatchStyle
    public HatchStyle HatchStyle {get; set;}
    Remarks
    Xceed Chart for WinForms supports 48 pattern types which you may be familiar with if you worked with the Excel build-in chart. Patterns are internally rendered as textures. It is recommended to apply patterns by using the SetPattern function because it will also assign a proper texture mapper.
    Example
    The following example applies a pattern to the background. Note that we used the SynchronizeMappingWithType to apply a texture mapper appropriate for the pattern filling type. 
    Dim chart As Chart = CType((m_ChartControl.Charts(0)), Chart)
Dim fillEffect As FillEffectBase =  m_ChartControl.Background.FillEffect 
fillEffect.Type = FillEffectType.Pattern
fillEffect.HatchStyle = HatchStyle.DarkDownwardDiagonal
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.AliceBlue
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.BlanchedAlmond
fillEffect.SynchronizeMappingWithType()
    Chart chart = (Chart)(m_ChartControl.Charts[0]);
FillEffectBase fillEffect = m_ChartControl.Background.FillEffect;
fillEffect.Type = FillEffectType.Pattern;
fillEffect.HatchStyle = HatchStyle.DarkDownwardDiagonal;
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.AliceBlue;
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.BlanchedAlmond;
fillEffect.SynchronizeMappingWithType();
