    GradientStop Struct

    Defines the color and position of a transition point in a gradient.

    Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

    Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v25.1.Core.dll

    NuGet Package: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core

    #Declaration

    public struct GradientStop :
        IEquatable<GradientStop>

    #Remarks

    Pass the GradientStop instances to the following methods to apply a gradient to a shape or its border:

    The example below shows how to apply a gradient of three colors to a rectangle.

    Rich_ShapeFill_GradientFill_Complex

    // Add a rectangle to a document.
    Shape rectangle = document.Shapes.InsertShape(document.Range.Start, ShapeGeometryPreset.Rectangle, new RectangleF(300, 200, 500, 300));
    // Apply a gradient of three colors to the rectangle.
    GradientStop stop1 = new GradientStop(0f, Color.FromArgb(0xFE, 0xD7, 0x66));
    GradientStop stop2 = new GradientStop(0.5f, Color.FromArgb(0xFF, 0x33, 0x77));
    GradientStop stop3 = new GradientStop(1f, Color.FromArgb(0x2A, 0x4D, 0x69));
    rectangle.Fill.SetGradientFill(GradientType.Shape, new GradientStop[] { stop1, stop2, stop3 });
    

    Use the GradientFill.GradientStops property to access a GradientStopCollection object that stores existing gradient stops. The collection’s methods allow you to add and delete gradient stops.
