 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)

)
```
 
### Parameters
 
 - hatchStyle
     - Type: [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Drawing.HatchStyle](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_HatchStyle.htm.md)
 [HatchStyle](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_HatchStyle.htm.md) value specifying hatch style of the brush. You can change this value later through property [HatchStyle](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Drawing_HatchBrush_HatchStyle.htm.md).

 - foreColor
     - Type: [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_RgbColor.htm.md)
 [RgbColor](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_RgbColor.htm.md) value specifying foreground color of the brush.
