Otherwise put, official Stata does not support dots or spots, or straight or wavy stripes, whether horizontal, vertical or diagonal.
The reference is to -catplot- (user-written, SSC) but, as used here, -catplot- is a wrapper for -graph hbar- and thus supports precisely the presentations of bars that -graph hbar- does, meaning none of the above.

Yes, but it is not easy. You'll have to reformulate your
graph statement as a -twoway rarea- statement and
download Sergiy Radyakin's twoway_parea (type in Stata:
-ssc install twoway_parea-).
