Properties

	Name	Description
	ColorInterpolationMode	Gets or sets a ColorInterpolationMode enumeration value that specifies how the gradient's colors are interpolated.
	Dispatcher	Gets the Dispatcher this object is associated with. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	GradientStops	Gets or sets the brush's gradient stops.
	MappingMode	Gets or sets a BrushMappingMode enumeration value that specifies whether the positioning coordinates of the gradient brush are absolute or relative to the output area.
	Opacity	Gets or sets the degree of opacity of a Brush. (Inherited from Brush.)
	RelativeTransform	Gets or sets the transformation that is applied to the brush using relative coordinates. (Inherited from Brush.)
	SpreadMethod	Gets or sets the type of spread method that specifies how to draw a gradient that starts or ends inside the bounds of the object to be painted.
	Transform	Gets or sets the transformation that is applied to the brush. (Inherited from Brush.)

	ClearValue	Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetAnimationBaseValue	Returns any base value established for a Silverlight dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
