Specifies the gradient start color. To make the gradient painted, the Background Mode must be set to a gradient mode.
void VpeSetBkgGradientStartColor(
VpeHandle hDoc,
COLORREF color_start
)
VpeHandle hDoc
Document Handle or VPE Object Handle
COLORREF color_start
one of the predefined "COLOR_xyz" constants described in Programmer's Manual or any RGB value
Default:
COLOR_WHITE (but the Transparent Background Mode is activated!)
Remarks:
Gradients do only work for rectangular objects like Boxes, Text, Ellipses, etc. Gradients are not drawn in Pies and Polygons. If a gradient mode is selected, hatching for the same object is not possible.
Example:
VpeSetBkgMode(hDoc, VBKG_GRD_LINE)
VpeSetBkgGradientStartColor(hDoc, COLOR_BLUE)
VpeSetBkgGradientEndColor(hDoc, COLOR_GREEN)
VpePrintBox(hDoc, 1, 1, "Hello World!")
Will draw the text "Hello World!" with a gradient running from blue to green in the background.
