Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger)

In this version, I don't see the standard fill options for bar graphs ie. slant etc that were available in older version. Same problem for power point as well.

They were omitted due to the new graphics engine employed by Office 2008.
However, user feed back has been significant & MacBU is working on a
collection of pattern fills. When they will be released I have no idea, but
they will work with the SmartArt Charts.

Alternatively I believe you can still use Insert> Object> MS Graph Chart to
create charts using the old engine to include the pattern fills you're
accustomed to, but you're giving up the advanced graphics formatting of
SmartArt if you do.
