XAML Values
| Color | The Color for a SolidColorBrush expressed as an attribute string. See Color. |

Property Value
A Brush that specifies how the Shape outline is painted.
This property is read/write. The default value is null.
Remarks
Setting the Stroke for a line (Line or Polyline) defines its entire brush-defined appearance. Setting Fill for a line has no effect.
Some brush types (SolidColorBrush) support a XAML attribute syntax, whereas other brush types (ImageBrush, LinearGradientBrush, RadialGradientBrush) only support an object element syntax. This is why two versions of XAML syntax are shown for this property.
Applies To
Ellipse, Line, Path, Polygon, Polyline, Rectangle, Shape
