// Apply a two-color gradient to the rectangle.
rectangle.Fill.SetGradientFill(GradientType.Rectangle, Color.FromArgb(0xFF, 0x8B, 0x94), Color.FromArgb(0x4D, 0x64, 0x8D));

VB.NET

' Add a rectangle to a document.
Dim rectangle As Shape = document.Shapes.InsertShape(document.Range.Start, ShapeGeometryPreset.Rectangle, New RectangleF(300, 200, 500, 300))
' Apply a two-color gradient to the rectangle.
rectangle.Fill.SetGradientFill(GradientType.Rectangle, Color.FromArgb(&HFF, &H8B, &H94), Color.FromArgb(&H4D, &H64, &H8D))
