LinearGradientBrushExtension Class
Implements a markup extension that returns a LinearGradientBrush based on specified parameters.
public class LinearGradientBrushExtension : MarkupExtension- Inheritance:
- object MarkupExtension object
Remarks
This class is a markup extension implementation. Markup extension classes exist mainly to provide infrastructure support
for some aspect of the WPF XAML processor implementation, but the CreateBrush methods make be utilized from
user code to quickly generate brushes.
Constructors
LinearGradientBrushExtension()
Initializes a new instance of the LinearGradientBrushExtension class.
public LinearGradientBrushExtension()LinearGradientBrushExtension(Color, Color)
Initializes a new instance of the LinearGradientBrushExtension class using the specified colors.
public LinearGradientBrushExtension(Color startColor, Color endColor)| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| startColor | Color | The start color. |
| endColor | Color | The end color. |
Properties

EndColor
Gets or sets the end color of the gradient.
[ConstructorArgument("endColor")]
public Color EndColor { get; set; }Property Value
- Color:
The end color.
GradientType
Gets or sets the type of gradient.
public LinearGradientType GradientType { get; set; }Property Value
- LinearGradientType:
The type of gradient.
StartColor
Gets or sets the start color of the gradient.
[ConstructorArgument("startColor")]
public Color StartColor { get; set; }Property Value
- Color:
The start color.
