"Fill Format" Section

In this section you can set the parameters describing the fill and shadow properties of the shape.

FillPattern

Sets the fill pattern. The following values are available:
0 - no fill pattern;
1 - fill with plain foreground color (set in FillColor);
2 - 38 - use a fill pattern;
50 - 53 - use gradient fill pattern.

FillColor

Sets the foreground color. The value in the field corresponds to the number of the color in the color palette of the document. The valid values are 0 to 255. Besides, you can specify the color by using the _RGB and_CMYK functions, for example _RGB(175;255;127). The function has 3 arguments - for red, blue and green components. The _CMYK function sets a color in the CMYK format.

FillPatColor

Sets the background color. The value in the field corresponds to the number of the color in the color palette of the document. The valid values are 0 to 255. Same as for FillColor you can set color using the _RGB and _CMYK functions.

0 - no fill pattern;
1 - fill with plain foreground color (set in ShadowColor);
2 - 38 - use a shadow pattern.

ShadowColor

Sets the shadow foreground color. The value in the field corresponds to the number of the color in the color palette of the document. The valid values are 0 to 255. You can also use the _RGB and _CMYK functions.

ShadowPatColor

Sets the shadow background color. The value in the field corresponds to the number of the color in the color palette of the document. The valid values are 0 to 255. You can also use the _RGB and _CMYK functions.
