ILineFillSymbol Interface

Provides access to members that control the line fill symbol.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

ILineFillSymbol is used to draw a fill comprised of line symbols. Any type of line symbol supported by the ILineSymbol interface can be used. Angle, Separation and Offset can be specified to further customize the look of the symbol. Use the IFillSymbol interface to set additional properties for ILineFillSymbols.

Members

Description
Read/write property Angle Line symbol angle within fill.
Read/write property Color Fill color.
Read/write property LineSymbol Line symbol used for fill.
Read/write property Offset Line fill offset.
Read/write property Outline Line symbol of fill outline.
Read/write property Separation Line symbol separation within fill.

CoClasses that implement ILineFillSymbol

CoClasses and Classes Description
LineFillSymbol A fill symbol comprised of any of the supported line symbols.

Remarks

The Angle property indicates the number of degrees between the LineSymbol and a horizontal line and defaults to 0.

The first line will always be drawn through the origin (0,0) of the container's coordinate system, unless the Offset property is set to a value other than zero. This means that line fill symbols can be aligned or offset as required between multiple shapes.

The Separation property, which is in points, determines the frequency of the line symbols within the areal feature. If the Spearation is less than the LineSymbol's Width, the lines will overlap, but a Separation greater than the Width will leave a transparent area between the LineSymbols, through which underlying symbols' elements can be seen.
