Change Fill Style

Right click Change Properties $image\MCHANGE.gif$ to select Change Fill Style.

CHANGE FILL STYLE redraws applicable selected entities with a different, pre-defined fill style.

Select entities to modify. The selected entities must be of a type valid for fills (polygons, SPolys, circles, ellipses, mulipolys).
The prompt reads "Fill style name [Dialog]:". To select a new fill style:

· Type an existing fill style name and press ENTER.

· Right-click to display the Fill Style Properties dialog box.

If you typed in a fill style name, CC3 redraws the entity with the target fill style, and the command terminates.

If you use the Fill Style Properties dialog box, select the name of the target fill style. Prior to this, you may need to select the tab to display the desired property sheet (Brush Patterns/Scaleable Hatching/Bitmap Files/Symbol Fills).
Choose the OK button to close the Fill Style Properties dialog box.

CC3 redraws the entity with the target fill style, and the command terminates.

Important: Use of this command does not change the current fill style. Note that the "FS:" setting on the Status Bar does not change. To change the active fill style, use the FILL STYLE command ( $image\fstyles.gif$ ).

Note: In the Fill Style Properties dialog box, you may choose the New button, define a new fill style, then immediately select it as the selected entity’s new fill style.
