I would like to use a centroid fill to enable me to place a letter inside a polygon. The advantage of using a centroid fill is that it also shows up in a legend, whereas labelling the layer would mean I have to put a text label on the legend in the composer.
The problem I have with the centroid fill is that the centroid can fall outside of the polygon, and as such my letter will not be within the polygon I need it to be.
I have included an example that shows where the centroid fills have worked, and one where it hasn't (the label shown in red):
Is there a way to force the centroid fill to be inside of the polygon?
Or is there another way to achieve this?

I've only found this work-around so far:
This is far from optimal, but I don't think this special feature is going to be implemented soon into the renderer.
