FillFormat Object

Remarks

A shape can have a solid, gradient, texture, pattern, picture, or semi-transparent fill.

Many of the properties of the FillFormat object are read-only. To set one of these properties, you have to apply the corresponding method.

Example

Use the Fill property to return a FillFormat object. The following example adds a rectangle to myDocument and then sets the gradient and color for the rectangle's fill.

Set myDocument = Worksheets(1) With myDocument.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, _ 90, 90, 90, 80).Fill .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(0, 128, 128) .OneColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, 1, 1 End With
