FillFormat Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word

Assembly:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll

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

public interface class FillFormat

Attributes

GuidAttribute

Remarks

Use the Fill property of a Shape, ShapeRange, or InlineShape object to return a FillFormat object.

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

Properties

Application	Returns a Application object that represents the Microsoft Word application.
BackColor	Returns or sets a ColorFormat object that represents the background color for the specified fill or patterned line.
Creator	Returns a 32-bit integer that indicates the application in which the specified object was created.
ForeColor	Returns or sets a ColorFormat object that represents the foreground color for the fill.
GradientAngle	Gets or sets the angle of the gradient fill for the specified fill format.
GradientColorType	Returns the gradient color type for the specified fill.
GradientDegree	Returns a value that indicates how dark or light a one-color gradient fill is.
GradientStops	Gets the GradientStops collection associated with the specified fill format.
GradientStyle	Returns the gradient style for the specified fill.
GradientVariant	Returns the gradient variant for the specified fill as an integer value from 1 to 4 for most gradient fills.
Parent	Returns an object that represents the parent object of the specified object.
Pattern	Returns a value that represents the pattern applied to the specified fill.
PictureEffects	Gets a PictureEffects object that can be used to apply picture effects to the specified fill formatting.
PresetGradientType	Returns the preset gradient type for the specified fill.
PresetTexture	Returns the preset texture for the specified fill.
RotateWithObject	Gets or sets whether the fill rotates with the specified shape.
TextureAlignment	Gets or sets the alignment (the origin of the coordinate grid) for the tiling of the texture fill.
TextureHorizontalScale	Gets or sets a value that specifies the horizontal scaling factor for the texture fill.
TextureName	Returns the name of the custom texture file for the specified fill.
TextureOffsetX	Gets or sets a value that specifies the horizontal offset of the texture from the origin in points.
TextureOffsetY	Gets or sets a value that specifies the vertical offset of the texture from the origin in points.
TextureTile	Gets or sets whether the texture fill is tiled or centered.
TextureType	Returns the texture type for the specified fill.
TextureVerticalScale	Gets or sets a value that specifies the vertical scaling factor for the texture fill.
Transparency	Returns or sets the degree of transparency of the specified fill as a value between 0.0 (opaque) and 1.0 (clear).
Type	Returns the shape fill format type.
Visible	True if the specified object, or the formatting applied to it, is visible.

Methods

Background()	Reserved for internal use.
OneColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, Single)	Sets the specified fill to a one-color gradient.
Patterned(MsoPatternType)	Sets the specified fill to a pattern.
PresetGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32, MsoPresetGradientType)	Sets the specified fill to a preset gradient.
PresetTextured(MsoPresetTexture)	Sets the specified fill to a preset texture.
Solid()	Sets the specified fill to a uniform color. Use this method to convert a gradient, textured, patterned, or background fill back to a solid fill.
TwoColorGradient(MsoGradientStyle, Int32)	Sets the specified fill to a two-color gradient.
UserPicture(String)	Fills the specified shape with one large image.
UserTextured(String)	Fills the specified shape with small tiles of an image.
