The LBRUSH structure contains style and color information for a brush.
 
Member     Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
lbStyle    Specifies brush style. GDI requires that drivers support at least
           the following brush styles.
 
           Value           Meaning
           ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
           BS_SOLID (0)    Brush is a single solid or dithered color.
 
           BS_HOLLOW (1)   Brush has no color or pattern.
 
           BS_HATCHED (2)  Brush has a predefined pattern.
 
           BS_PATTERN (3)  Brush has the pattern as specified by a given
                           bitmap.
 
lbColor    Specifies a foreground color for brushes having BS_SOLID and
           BS_HATCHED values. For BS_HOLLOW and BS_PATTERN values, this
           member is zero. Brush colors are specified as physical colors.
           For palette-capable devices, this member specifies a
           physical-color index if the high-order byte is 0xFF.
 
lbHatch    Specifies a brush pattern for brushes having BS_HATCHED style or
           a global memory handle for a bitmap for brushes having BS_PATTERN
           style. For BS_SOLID and BS_HOLLOW values, this member is zero.
 
           For BS_HATCHED brushes, this member specifies a brush pattern and
           can be one of the following values.
 
           Value          Description
           ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
           HS_HORIZONTAL  Horizontal hatch
 
           HS_VERTICAL    Vertical hatch
 
           HS_FDIAGONAL   45-degree upward hatch (left to right)
 
           HS_BDIAGONAL   45-degree downward hatch (left to right)
 
           HS_CROSS       Horizontal and vertical cross hatch
 
           HS_DIAGCROSS   45-degree cross hatch
 
           For BS_PATTERN style, this member is the global memory handle to
           a PBITMAP structure specifying the pattern.
 
lbBkColor  Specifies the background color for brushes having BS_HATCHED
           style. Brush colors are specified as physical colors. For
           palette-capable devices, this member specifies a physical color
           index if the high-order byte is 0xFF.
