*** Bug 615 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Yes, this is a welcome new feature. Right now (for VCL), the Brush.Bitmap property can be used as a pattern. This is different than the Brush.Image property, which is used to fill areas in "stretch" mode instead of pattern mode. When using the GDI+ canvas there is the possibility of using GDI+ "Hatch Styles" (here a list: https://drewnoakes.com/snippets/GdiColorChart/ ) without using the Brush.Bitmap property, but this long list of hatch styles is not available as valid enum values for Brush.Style. One solution could be an additional Brush.HatchStyle property, but that will be only available in VCL, and only when using the GDI+ canvas. Right now the Brush editor dialog shows additional styles at the "Hatch" tab, as small bitmaps that are contained in the TeeBrushes.res resource file. |
Created attachment 107 [details] Possible extended brush styles Would it be possible to extend the range of standard Windows Brush Styles (e.g. bsSolid, bsCross, bsClear). Some suggestions in the attachments (poor resolution - can send better resolution as individual files)
