From your first picture it seems that you have deleted all the fills from the fill library. It only shows 9 fills

Try to open a new Archicad file with default settings and copy the fill you want unless you know how to use the attributes and copy all the fills from the new file to the one you are working.

Or if you just started, open a new file instead of using an old one.

Logo on the OPs second image is AC19, though given the university logo, why are they using such an outdated version...?

 

Edit: the AC19 image is on Windows? @keily , does your file actually have those fills?

 

Options => Element Attributes => Fills

 

The fills will need to actually be loaded into your file. The ones shown in the AC19 image look to be the standard ones found in the included template, so if they are not actually in your file, you can use the Attribute Manager to import them.
