Name
CanvasGradient — a color gradient for use in a canvas
Methods
addColorStop()Specifies a color and position for the gradient
Description
A CanvasGradient object represents a color gradient that may be
assigned to both the strokeStyle and
fillStyle properties of a CanvasRenderingContext2D
object. The createLinearGradient() and
createRadialGradient() methods of
CanvasRenderingContext2D both return CanvasGradient objects.
Once you have created a CanvasGradient object, use
addColorStop() to specify what colors should appear
at what positions within the gradient. Between the positions you
specify, colors are interpolated to create a smooth gradient or fade. If
you specify no color stops, the gradient will be uniform transparent
black.
