Class: PictureFillSymbol
[ AMD Module Require | Legacy Module Require ]
dojo.require("esri.symbols.PictureFillSymbol")
Description
(Added at v1.0)
Fill symbols are used to draw polygon features on the graphics layer. PictureFillSymbol uses an image in a repeating pattern. In addition, the symbol can have an optional outline, which is defined by a line symbol.
Explore the PictureFillSymbol in the ArcGIS Symbol Playground. This is a place to explore and learn how to work with various properties and methods before implementing it into custom code. Try out new features, customize them, and copy the generated code into your own application. This sample provides a starting point so as to allow use of these features as quickly as possible.Samples

Constructor Details
Creates a new PictureFillSymbol object.
Parameters:
< |
Required | URL of the image. |
< |
Required | Outline of the symbol. |
< |
Required | Width of the image in pixels. |
< |
Required | Height of the image in pixels. |
Sample:
var pfs = new esri.symbol.PictureFillSymbol('images/sand.png',
new esri.symbol.SimpleLineSymbol(esri.symbol.SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID,
new esri.Color('#000'), 1),
42, 42);
Creates a new PictureFillSymbol object using a JSON object.
Parameters:
< |
Required | JSON object representing the PictureFillSymbol. View the Symbol Objects (Common data types in ArcGIS) for details on creating a JSON symbol. Note that when specifying symbol width and height using JSON the values should be entered in points, the JavaScript API then converts the point values to pixels. |
Sample:
var symbol = new esri.symbol. PictureFillSymbol({
"url":"graphics/redArrow2.png",
"height":20,
"width":20,
"type":"esriPFS"
