Defines the focus size for radial fills. Read/write. VgVector2D.

Applies To

Fill

Tag Syntax

<v: element focussize=" expression ">

Script Syntax

element .focussize="expression"

expression=element.focussize

Remarks

The values are fractions of the width and height of the shape. The first is a percentage of the fill to the right edge of the shape and the second is a percentage of the fill to the bottom of the shape. The default value is 0,0. A FocusSize value of 100%,100% and a FocusPosition of 0,0 would make Color2 dominate the blend completely. Small values of around 10%,10% are recommended for balanced blends.

VML Standard Attribute

Example

The radial fill will create a blend starting in the center as blue and becoming red on all four edges. The center of the blend is defined by FocusPosition and the size of the inner starting color is determined by FocusSize.
