Hi Markus In the newest svn trunk version, there is an svg fill renderer that scales an svg pattern to the resolution of the screen / composer. Like this, you could create a line texture as svg file, e.g. in inkscape (or ask on the list if someone already has a good one). Then, in the vector prop. dialog, click 'new symbology', click 'properties' and choose symbol layer type 'SVGFill'.
The brush scaling does not work if you print to pdf (due to a known bug in the Qt library). But it is supposed to work for direct printing, postscript, svg or to a pixel graphic format (e.g. jpg, png). Regards, Marco Am Mittwoch, 20.
