Symmetric varies the effect proportionately and evenly, for example, if applying 

hatches to round or cylindrical shapes.

Random applies the effect irregularly.

Fade specifies whether the hatch fades across the object. Choose the fade properties 

from the Fade pop-up menu: None for no fade, To White to fade the hatch to white, 
To Black to fade the hatch to black, or Use Gradient if the object is filled with a gradient 
and you want that gradient to define the fade’s direction and colors.
