BackgroundArea

Set the fill options for the selected drawing object or document element. This is not only for drawing objects, but pages, paragraphs and others too. Need better wording
You can add custom colors, gradients, hatchings, two color patterns and bitmap patterns to the default lists for later use.

None

Do not fill the selected object.

Gradient

Fills the object with a gradient selected on this page.

Hatch

Fills the object with a hatching pattern selected on this page. You can quickly select fill options from the list boxes on the Drawing Object Properties toolbar. TODO: This para doesn't belong here anymore, but as several places include it, can't remove yet. Find a better place for it in a later commit.
Select the type of fill that you want to apply to the selected drawing object. Chart does not have an Apply button
