Area

Symbol Rotate: Relative rotation of each symbol (in degrees).
Symbol Size: The size of each symbol. |

Include in legend: If checked, the currently selected section is displayed in the Legend panel as a subgroup of its layer. |
Outline
|
Style: The style of the outline; check Use renderer option below to use global renderer settings found on the Renderer tab. |
|
Width: The width of the outline; check Use renderer option below to use global renderer settings found on the Renderer tab. |
|
Color: The color of the outline. |
|
Bitmap: The image file used for drawing outline instead of color. |

Pattern: The pattern of the outline. |
|
Symbol Gap: The distance between subsequent symbols.
Symbol Rotate: Relative rotation of each symbol (in degrees).
Include in legend: If checked, the currently selected section is displayed in the Legend panel as a subgroup of its layer. |
Smart size
|
Size: The factor defining how big (at least) must be a polygon at the current scale to be rendered. |
|
Field: If the size of t he polygons should be rendered on the basis of some attribute, use this list to choose appropriate one. |
