'Usage
Dim instance As ChartFillFormat
Dim value As Integer

int GradientVariant { get; }
Property Value
Type: System.Int32
Long
Remarks
If the gradient style is msoGradientFromTitle or msoGradientFromCenter, this property returns either 1 or 2.
The values for this property correspond to the gradient variants (numbered from left to right and from top to bottom) on the Gradient subtab in the Shape Fill tab. Long.
This property is read-only. Use the OneColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, Single), PresetGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, MsoPresetGradientType), or TwoColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32) method to set the gradient variant for the fill.
Examples
This example adds a rectangle to myDocument and sets its fill gradient variant 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
gradVar1 = .Item("rect1").Fill.GradientVariantWith .AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 0, 0, 40, 80).Fill
.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(128, 0, 0)
.OneColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, gradVar1, 1
