Remarks
Microsoft Office Visio allows a master to be used as a custom line pattern, line end, or fill pattern.
The PatternFlags property determines whether you can use a master as a pattern (non-zero); whether it is a line, fill, or line end pattern; and which pattern mode to use when applying it to shapes.
If you can use the PatternFlags property as a pattern (non-zero), the property can include a combination of the following bits.
