Description

XSetStipple() sets the stipple component of a GC.  The stipple is a pixmap of depth one.  It is laid out like a tile.  Set bits in the stipple determine which pixels in an area are drawn in the foreground pixel value.  Unset bits in the stipple determine which pixels are drawn in the background pixel value if the fill_style is Fill­Opaque­Stippled.  If fill_style is FillStippled, pixels overlayed with unset bits in the stipple are not drawn.  If fill_style is FillTiled or Fill­Solid, the stipple is not used.  For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 5, The Graphics Context.
