The foreground fill pattern Id.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 24.0.0.0 (24.0.0.0)
Since:  2019

Syntax

C#
public ElementId ForegroundPatternId { get; set; }
Visual Basic
Public Property ForegroundPatternId As ElementId
	Get
	Set
Visual C++
public:
property ElementId^ ForegroundPatternId {
	ElementId^ get ();
	void set (ElementId^ value);
}

Remarks

When the FilledRegionAttributes element is in a family then the FillPattern used for a foreground pattern must have a 'Drafting' target. In addition, when the FilledRegionAttributes element is in a family, the pattern cannot be the solid fill pattern unless the 'IsMasking' property is set to true. InvalidElementId is used when there is no foreground pattern
