If you are trying to override your graphic settings then you will most likely want to get SolidFillPattern at some point.

#🟦 Get All Fill Patterns
all_patterns = FilteredElementCollector(doc)\
                    .OfClass(FillPatternElement)\
                    .ToElements()

#🔎 Filter Solid Fill Pattern
solid_pattern = [i for i in all_patterns 
                    if i.GetFillPattern().IsSolidFill][0]
