    Go to Setup>User Preferences and check the setting Display>OpenGL>static_shapes_fill_solid - you are getting the "set" behaviour from the look of the screenshot, when the preference is unchecked and applied, static shapes, like Place Bounds, will fill with a "stipple" pattern, rather than solid.
