Remarks
IDotDensityFillSymbol controls the appearance of the marker symbols within the dot density fill.
BackgroundColor reflects the color used to fill areas that are not covered by dots--use a NullColor if you wish the underlying layers to be visible through the dots.
Color indicates the color of the dots, and Outline can be used to alter the appearance of the boundary of the shape.
Set FixedPlacement to True if you wish the dots to be alwasy placed in the same location. The DotSize property indicates the size of each dot in points--using a small size, such as 1 to 3 points, is usually most suitable.
The DotCount property contains a zero-based array of values that determine the number of dots drawn in a filled shape.
