Remarks

The TdxGPBrushGradientMode type is referenced by the GradientMode property implemented in the TdxGPBrush class.

The table below lists available directions of the gradient line within the brush, including the brush layout and actual appearance examples. For the convenience of visual comparison, all gradient examples contain the same two key points at the beginning (blue) and the end (red) of the gradient line.

Value	Description	Brush Layout	Brush Example	Masked Brush Examples (Painted Surfaces)
gpbgmHorizontal	The starting (Offset = 0) and ending (Offset = 1) points of the gradient line are located at the left and right bounds of the painted brush, respectively.
gpbgmVertical	The starting (Offset = 0) and ending (Offset = 1) points of the gradient line are located at the top and bottom bounds of the area painted by the brush, respectively.
gpbgmForwardDiagonal	The starting (Offset = 0) and ending (Offset = 1) points of the gradient line are located at in the upper-left and bottom-right corners of the area painted by the brush, respectively.
gpbgmBackwardDiagonal	The starting (Offset = 0) and ending (Offset = 1) points of the gradient line are located at the upper-right and bottom-left corners of the area painted by the brush, respectively.
