SimpleFillSymbol is used for rendering 2D polygons in either a MapView or a SceneView. It can be filled with a solid color, or a pattern. In addition, the symbol can have an optional outline, which is defined by a SimpleLineSymbol.
SimpleFillSymbols may be applied to polygon features in a FeatureLayer or an individual Graphic.
Fill symbols may also be used to symbolize 2D polygon features in a 3D SceneView. However, it is recommended you use PolygonSymbol3D instead. The image below depicts a FeatureLayer whose graphics are styled with a SimpleFillSymbol.
var symbol = new SimpleFillSymbol({
color: [ 51,51, 204, 0.9 ],
style: "solid",
outline: { // autocasts as esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol
color: "white",
width: 1
}

Method Details
clone(){SimpleFillSymbol}
Creates a deep clone of the symbol.
Returns:Type Description SimpleFillSymbol A deep clone of the object that invoked this method. Example:// Creates a deep clone of the graphic's symbol var symLyr = graphic.symbol.clone();fromJSON(json){*}static
Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from a product in the ArcGIS platform. The object passed into the input
jsonparameter often comes from a response to a query operation in the REST API or a toJSON() method from another ArcGIS product. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for details and examples of when and how to use this function.Parameter:json ObjectA JSON representation of the instance in the ArcGIS format. See the ArcGIS REST API documentation for examples of the structure of various input JSON objects.
Returns:Type Description * Returns a new instance of this class. Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS Portal JSON representation. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for more information.
Returns:Type Description Object The ArcGIS Portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.
