Remarks
The tint parameter value specifies shades (negative values) or tints (positive values) used to darken or lighten the original color, respectively. -1.0 means darken 100% (black) and 1.0 means lighten 100% (white). The zero value corresponds to the original color used at full strength.
The example below demonstrates how to fill the cell background using the color that is 20% lighter than the standard Accent 1 color of the default Office 2013 theme. The XlDocumentTheme enumeration lists the available document themes.
using (IXlCell cell = row.CreateCell())
{
// Fill the cell background using the theme color.
XlColor color = XlColor.FromTheme(XlThemeColor.Accent1, 0.2);
cell.ApplyFormatting(XlFill.SolidFill(color));
