====== Area Style ======

The **Area Style** allows you to define how area (polygon-based) features will be rendered on the map.  Area styles offer numerous controls for fill and outline colors, dash patterns and many other properties.

===== Properties =====
**Name** - 
The name of the area style.  Choosing a descriptive name can help you quickly identify styles when you are compositing many of them together.

**Fill** - 
Sets the style of the fill of each area feature.  The fill can be a color, gradient, hatch pattern or bitmapped texture.

**Outline Color** - 
Sets the style of the border around each area feature.  The outline can be a color, gradient, hatch pattern or bitmapped texture.

**Outline Thickness** - 
Sets the thickness, in pixels, of the border around each area feature.

===== Dash Pattern =====
The options in this section control the appearance of the outlines around your area features.  (If you have selected an Outline Thickness of 0, then these options do not apply.)
