FillColor
This property determines the color used to fill in graphic objects and shapes.
Usage
oObject.FillColor = nColor
nColor = oObject.FillColor
The FillColor property of a form specifies the color used to fill in rectangles, circles and ellipses drawn with the form’s Box and Circle methods. (_SCREEN is considered a form for this purpose.) A shape’s FillColor determines its interior.
FillColor matters only when FillStyle is something other than the default 1 (Transparent).
See DrawMode for a form that demonstrates the effects of FillColor and FillStyle.
Example
_Screen.FillColor = RGB(128,0,0) && deep red
_Screen.FillStyle = 6 && checks - country style
_Screen.Box(0, 0, 100, 100)
