XAML Values
Value |
Description |
|---|---|
colorString |
The Color for a SolidColorBrush expressed as an attribute string. This can be a named color, an RGB value, or an ScRGB value. RGB or ScRGB may also specify alpha information. See the "colorString Grammar" section in Color. |
Property Value
Type: Color
The color of the gradient stop.
This property is read/write. The default value is Transparent.
Remarks
You cannot specify a Brush object element such as LinearGradientBrush for this property value by using property element syntax. You can only use XAML attribute syntax to set Color to a color string, as documented in the "colorString Grammar" section of the Color reference topic.
Setting this property in JavaScript also requires the colorString grammar to specify the value as a string, unless you set it to the value of another object's property that is also a Color. See the "Remarks" section in Color for additional information about the scripting usage of the Color object.
Example
The following example creates a LinearGradientBrush with four gradient stops in the implicit GradientStopCollection, which is used to paint a Rectangle.
<Canvas
xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="https://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
<!-- This rectangle is painted with a diagonal linear gradient. -->
<Rectangle Width="200" Height="100">
<Rectangle.Fill>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="1,1">
<GradientStop Color="Yellow" Offset="0.0" />
<GradientStop Color="Red" Offset="0.25" />
<GradientStop Color="Blue" Offset="0.75" />
<GradientStop Color="LimeGreen" Offset="1.0" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Rectangle.Fill>
</Rectangle>
