ConicGradientFilling
✖
ConicGradientFilling
is a two-dimensional graphics directive specifying that faces of polygons and other filled graphics objects are to be drawn using a progressive transition between colors coli along a circle.
Details


- ConicGradientFilling is also known as conic gradient.
- ConicGradientFilling is typically used to fill a region with a range of position-dependent colors.
- ConicGradientFilling[{col1,col2,…,coln}] specifies a progressive transition between coli along circles around the center of the bounding box of a graphic object.
- ConicGradientFilling[] is effectively equivalent to ConicGradientFilling[{Black,White}].
- ConicGradientFilling["scheme"] uses the specified color scheme in ColorData.
- ConicGradientFilling[{θ1,θ2,…,θn}{col1,col2,…,coln}] specifies colors coli to use at the angle θi from
to
.
- ConicGradientFilling[{θ1col1,θ2col2,…}] is equivalent to ConicGradientFilling[{θ1,θ2,…}{col1,col2,…}].
- ConicGradientFilling[{{θ1,θ2},{col1,col2},…}] is equivalent to ConicGradientFilling[{θ1,θ2,…}{col1,col2,…}].
- ConicGradientFilling[…,{x,y}] specifies the center point {x,y} of rotation and is taken to be coordinates scaled to run from 0 to 1 across the bounding box of a graphic object.
- ImageScaled can be used to specify the center point {x,y} and is taken to be fractions of the whole image region.
- ConicGradientFilling[colors] is equivalent to ConicGradientFilling[colors,{0.5,0.5}].
- ConicGradientFilling[{θ1,…,θn}{col1,…,coln},center,padding] specifies the padding to use when drawing beyond the original range of angles between θ1 and θn.
