Remarks

Use the PresetGradient method to set the preset gradient type for the fill.

Example

This example changes the fill for the first shape on the first page of the active publication to the Fog preset gradient fill if it is not already set to the Fog preset gradient. This example assumes that there is at least one shape on the first page of the active publication.

Sub SetGradient()
    With ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes(1).Fill
        If .PresetGradientType <> msoGradientFog Then
            .PresetGradient Style:=msoGradientHorizontal, _
                Variant:=1, PresetGradientType:=msoGradientFog
        End If
    End With
End Sub
