GradientPropertyTransform

Type

operator

Summary

The transform of a gradient paint.

Syntax

the transform of <mGradient>

Description

The transform of mGradient as a transform. This can be used to scale, position, and skew the gradient instead of setting the from, to, and via points.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
mGradient		An expression which evaluates to a gradient.

Examples

// Create new gradient paint
variable tGradient
put radial gradient with ramp [gradient stop at 0 with color [0,0,0], gradient stop at 1 with color [1,1,1]] into tGradient

variable tRect
put rectangle [ 20, 10, 120, 60 ] into tRect

// Use the transform property to make the radial gradient spread out from the center of tRect
variable tTransform
put the identity transform into tTransform

// Offset transform to the center of tRect
translate tTransform by [(the left of tRect + the right of tRect) / 2, (the top of tRect + the bottom of tRect) / 2]

// Scale out to the right & bottom of tRect
scale tTransform by [the width of tRect / 2, the height of tRect / 2]

// Set the gradient transform
set the transform of tGradient to tTransform
