Description: You do not get any alternatives when selecting a Fill Pattern for objects or shapes in Writer from the Area Toolbar drop-down menu. Patterns themselves appear to work fine. A simple workaround exists; right-click the object, click Area... and select Pattern. Selecting an option from this dialogue works fine. LO Draw component is not affected by this bug. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create any shape. 2. From the Area Style / Filling drop-down menu, select Pattern. Actual Results: Notice how there are no options to select from. Expected Results: The same options should be displayed like you get if you right click the shape, click Area... and select Pattern. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 6.2.1.2 (x64) Build ID: 7bcb35dc3024a62dea0caee87020152d1ee96e71 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; Locale: sv-SE (sv_SE); UI-Language: en-US Calc: CL
I confirm this with Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: f42554a1886ebe49170c25096dc3281b2c7bb1f4 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2019-02-08_22:37:30 Locale: en-US (de_DE); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded and also with Version: 6.1.5.2 (x64) Build-ID: 90f8dcf33c87b3705e78202e3df5142b201bd805 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Windows 10.0; UI-Render: Standard; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: group threaded Additional information: It also works with area properties in the sidebar
Reproducible also in Version: 5.4.7.2 (x64) Build-ID: c838ef25c16710f8838b1faec480ebba495259d0 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Windows 6.19; UI-Render: GL; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: CL
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this. I noticed this on console: warn:legacy.osl:27322:27322:svx/source/tbxctrls/fillctrl.cxx:512: Non supported FillType (!) The problem is FillStyle (https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/offapi/com/sun/star/drawing/FillStyle.idl?r=3ed31af5) contains only: NONE, SOLID, GRADIENT, HATCH and BITMAP. In sidebar part, there's an enum, see https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/search?project=core&full=%22enum+eFillStyle%22&defs=&refs=&path=&hist=&type=&si=full enum eFillStyle { NONE, SOLID, GRADIENT, HATCH, BITMAP, PATTERN }; PATTERN is considered as special case of BITMAP. So I suppose we should copypaste the same mechanism.

I entered a bug with a somewhat wider scope, using component Draw, which must be the core reason of the problem, with a reference to this bug report.
