Gets or sets a ColorInterpolationMode enumeration that specifies how the gradient's colors are interpolated.

public:
 property System::Windows::Media::ColorInterpolationMode ColorInterpolationMode { System::Windows::Media::ColorInterpolationMode get(); void set(System::Windows::Media::ColorInterpolationMode value); };

public System.Windows.Media.ColorInterpolationMode ColorInterpolationMode { get; set; }

Public Property ColorInterpolationMode As ColorInterpolationMode

Property Value

ColorInterpolationMode

Specifies how the colors in a gradient are interpolated. The default is SRgbLinearInterpolation.

Examples

The following example shows two similar gradients that have different modes of color interpolation, which causes the interpolation to happen in different color spaces.
