Select fill type in the Fill drop-down list:

No Fill. Shape fill is not used.
Solid Fill. Select fill color in the drop-down palette. If required, specify fill opacity percent.
Two-Color Fill. Select the start and the end colors of gradient in the drop-down palettes. If required, specify fill opacity percent.
Hatching Fill. Execute the operations:

Select solid fill color in the drop-down palette. If required, specify fill opacity percent.

Select hatching color in the drop-down palette. If required, specify hatching color transparency percent.

If no hatching is selected or fill color matches the hatching color, the cell has a uniform background.

One can select standard and custom colors in the drop-down palette. The palette contains only standard colors by default. To create a custom color, use the advanced color palette that is available after clicking the Add Color button. The maximum possible number of custom colors in the palette is 23. To delete custom color from the palette, select the Delete item in the selected color's context menu.

To reset the specified format settings, click the Delete button.
