A Color structure that represents the ending color for the gradient.

angle

Single

The angle, measured in degrees clockwise from the x-axis, of the gradient's orientation line.

Remarks

All points along any line perpendicular to the orientation line are the same color.

The starting line is perpendicular to the orientation line and passes through one of the corners of the rectangle. All points on the starting line are the starting color. Then ending line is perpendicular to the orientation line and passes through one of the corners of the rectangle. All points on the ending line are the ending color.

The angle of the orientation line determines which corners the starting and ending lines pass through. For example, if the angle is between 0 and 90 degrees, the starting line passes through the upper-left corner, and the ending line passes through the lower-right corner.
