Property Value

Type	Description
FillMode	A FillMode enumeration value which specifies how an element’s surface is filled.

Available values:

Name	Description
Empty	The fill mode is not specified and thus the default fill mode from the appearance is used. Note that series labels do not support the transparent fill when Empty mode is enabled and DirectX rendering is used. For more information, see the following topic: technical limitations.
Solid	Specifies that an element’s surface should be filled in the solid mode.
Gradient	Specifies that an element’s surface should be filled in gradient mode.
Hatch	Specifies that an element’s surface should be filled in hatch mode.

Remarks

Note that if the FillMode property is set to FillMode.Empty, the FillMode property value is obtained from the current appearance, which is specified by the ChartControl.AppearanceName (or WebChartControl.AppearanceName) property.
