DeskGradientStyle

Purpose

Controls how a background gradient is applied to the controls desk area. Start and end RGB colors are defined with DeskGradientStart and DeskGradientEnd. Most of these styles look best with the start color set to white, especially the radial styles.

VCL Enumerations:

Replace the x prefix with either g(graph), sg(scientific graph), td(3D scientific graph), ps(polar/smith), or pc(pie chart).

eGradientStyle = (xNoGradient, xVerticalGradient, xHorizontalGradient, xLinearBarVertical, xLinearBarHorizontal, xLinearBarDown, xLinearBarUp, xLinearDiagonalDown, xLinearDiagonalUp, xRectangleCross, xRectanglePlus, xRadialCentered, xRadialBottomRight, xRadialTopRight, xRadialBottomLeft, xRadialTopLeft);

Comments

This property is only effective if BitmapGradientMode is TRUE and DeskColor is set to 1. For more information on background bitmaps and gradients, see commonly asked Question 36.
