Blend.Positions Property

Definition

Gets or sets an array of blend positions for the gradient.

public:
 property cli::array <float> ^ Positions { cli::array <float> ^ get(); void set(cli::array <float> ^ value); };
public float[] Positions { get; set; }
member this.Positions : single[] with get, set
Public Property Positions As Single()

Property Value

Single[]

An array of blend positions that specify the percentages of distance along the gradient line.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the Blend class by setting the Factors and Positions properties. This example is designed to be used with Windows Forms. Paste the code into a form that imports the System.Drawing.Drawing2D namespace. Handle the form's Paint event and call the DemonstrateBlend method, passing e as PaintEventArgs.

private:
   void DemonstrateBlend( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      Blend^ blend1 = gcnew Blend( 9 );

      // Set the values in the Factors array to be all green, 
      // go to all blue, and then go back to green.
      array<Single>^temp0 = {0.0F,0.2F,0.5F,0.7F,1.0F,0.7F,0.5F,0.2F,0.0F};
      blend1->Factors = temp0;

      // Set the positions.
      array<Single>^temp1 = {0.0F,0.1F,0.3F,0.4F,0.5F,0.6F,0.7F,0.8F,1.0F};
      blend1->Positions = temp1;

      // Declare a rectangle to draw the Blend in.
      Rectangle rectangle1 = Rectangle(10,10,120,100);

      // Create a new LinearGradientBrush using the rectangle, 
      // green and blue. and 90-degree angle.
      LinearGradientBrush^ brush1 = gcnew LinearGradientBrush( rectangle1,Color::LightGreen,Color::Blue,90,true );

      // Set the Blend property on the brush to the custom blend.
      brush1->Blend = blend1;

      // Fill in an ellipse with the brush.
      e->Graphics->FillEllipse( brush1, rectangle1 );

      // Dispose of the custom brush.
      delete brush1;
   }
private void DemonstrateBlend(PaintEventArgs e)
{
    Blend blend1 = new Blend(9);

    // Set the values in the Factors array to be all green, 
    // go to all blue, and then go back to green.
    blend1.Factors = new float[]{0.0F, 0.2F, 0.5F, 0.7F, 1.0F, 
                                    0.7F, 0.5F, 0.2F, 0.0F};

    // Set the positions.
    blend1.Positions = 
        new float[]{0.0F, 0.1F, 0.3F, 0.4F, 0.5F, 0.6F, 
        0.7F, 0.8F, 1.0F};

    // Declare a rectangle to draw the Blend in.
    Rectangle rectangle1 = new Rectangle(10, 10, 120, 100);

    // Create a new LinearGradientBrush using the rectangle, 
    // green and blue. and 90-degree angle.
    LinearGradientBrush brush1 = 
        new LinearGradientBrush(rectangle1, Color.LightGreen, 
        Color.Blue, 90, true);

    // Set the Blend property on the brush to the custom blend.
    brush1.Blend = blend1;

    // Fill in an ellipse with the brush.
    e.Graphics.FillEllipse(brush1, rectangle1);

    // Dispose of the custom brush.
    brush1.Dispose();
}
Private Sub DemonstrateBlend(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)
    Dim blend1 As New Blend(9)

    ' Set the values in the Factors array to be all green, 
    ' go to all blue, and then go back to green.
    blend1.Factors = New Single() {0.0F, 0.2F, 0.5F, 0.7F, 1.0F, _
        0.7F, 0.5F, 0.2F, 0.0F}

    ' Set the positions.
    blend1.Positions = New Single() {0.0F, 0.1F, 0.3F, 0.4F, 0.5F, _
        0.6F, 0.7F, 0.8F, 1.0F}

    ' Declare a rectangle to draw the Blend in.
    Dim rectangle1 As New Rectangle(10, 10, 120, 100)

    ' Create a new LinearGradientBrush using the rectangle, 
    ' green and blue. and 90-degree angle.
    Dim brush1 As New LinearGradientBrush(rectangle1, _
        Color.LightGreen, Color.Blue, 90, True)

    ' Set the Blend property on the brush to the custom blend.
    brush1.Blend = blend1

    ' Fill in an ellipse with the brush.
    e.Graphics.FillEllipse(brush1, rectangle1)

    ' Dispose of the custom brush.
    brush1.Dispose()

Remarks

The elements of this array specify percentages of distance along the gradient line. For example, an element value of 0.2f specifies that this point is 20 percent of the total distance from the starting point. The elements in this array are represented by float values between 0.0f and 1.0f. The first element of the array must be 0.0f, and the last element must be 1.0f.
