Styles

A linear gradient color is specified by two points, and a color (or different intensity of one color) at each point. Depending on the points' positions, there are four styles you can select.

Important:

The PanelView Plus 7 and PanelView Plus 6 terminals cannot process a Gradient Fill that uses a Diagonal Up or Diagonal Down direction, nor can the terminal apply a Gradient Fill to a rotated object. When running an MER on a PanelView Plus 7 or PanelView Plus 6 terminal and the system encounters an object with these attributes, the system shall use the gradient fill starting color as the object's solid color background.

When running the MER on a computer, the system can process all gradient fills and this warning does not apply.
