Property Value

MsoGradientStyle
Remarks
Use the OneColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, Single), PresetGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, MsoPresetGradientType), or TwoColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32) method to set the gradient style for the fill. Attempting to return this property for a fill that doesn't have a gradient generates an error. Use the Type property to determine whether the fill has a gradient.
The value returned by the GradientStyle property can be one of these MsoGradientStyle constants.

Examples
This example adds a rectangle to myDocument and sets its fill gradient style to match that of the shape named "rect1." For the example to work, rect1 must have a gradient fill.
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
With myDocument.Shapes
gradStyle1 = .Item("rect1").Fill.GradientStyleWith .AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 0, 0, 40, 80).Fill
.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(128, 0, 0)
.OneColorGradient gradStyle1, 1, 1
