FillFormat Members (PowerPoint)

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

Methods

Name	Description
Background	Specifies that the shape's fill should match the slide background. If you change the slide background after applying this method to a fill, the fill will also change.
OneColorGradient	Sets the specified fill to a one-color gradient.
Patterned	Sets the specified fill to a pattern.
PresetGradient	Sets the specified fill to a preset gradient.
PresetTextured	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	Sets the specified fill to a two-color gradient.
UserPicture	Fills the specified shape with one large image.
UserTextured	Fills the specified shape with small tiles of an image.

Properties

Name	Description
Application	Returns an Application object that represents the creator of the specified object.
BackColor	Returns or sets a ColorFormat object that represents the background color for the specified fill or patterned line. Read/write.
Creator	Returns a Long that represents the four-character creator code for the application in which the specified object was created. For example, if the object was created in Microsoft PowerPoint, this property returns the hexadecimal number 50575054. Read-only.
ForeColor	Returns or sets a ColorFormat object that represents the foreground color for the fill, line, or shadow. Read/write.
GradientAngle	Returns or sets the angle of the gradient fill for the specified fill format. Read/write.
GradientColorType	Returns the gradient color type for the specified fill. Read-only.
GradientDegree	Returns a value that indicates how dark or light a one-color gradient fill is. Read-only.
GradientStops	Returns the GradientStops collection associated with the specified fill format. Read-only.
GradientStyle	Returns the gradient style for the specified fill. Read-only.
GradientVariant	Returns the gradient variant for the specified fill as an integer value from 1 to 4 for most gradient fills. Read-only.
Parent	Returns the parent object for the specified object.
Pattern	Sets or returns a value that represents the pattern applied to the specified fill. Read-only.
PictureEffects	Returns an object that represents the picture or texture fill for the specified fill format. Read-only.
PresetGradientType	Returns the preset gradient type for the specified fill. Read-only.
PresetTexture	Returns the preset texture for the specified fill. Read-only.
RotateWithObject	Returns or sets whether the fill rotates with the specified shape. Read/write.
TextureAlignment	Returns or sets the alignment (the origin of the coordinate grid) for the tiling of the texture fill. Read/write.
TextureHorizontalScale	Returns or sets the horizontal scaling factor for the texture fill. Read/write.
TextureName	Returns the name of the custom texture file for the specified fill. Read-only.
TextureOffsetX	Returns or sets the horizontal offset of the texture from the origin in points. Read/write.
TextureOffsetY	Returns or sets the vertical offset of the texture from the origin in points. Read/write.
TextureTile	Returns or sets whether the texture fill is tiled or centered. Read/write.
TextureType	Returns the texture type for the specified fill. Read-only.
TextureVerticalScale	Returns or sets the vertical scaling factor for the texture fill. Read/write.
Transparency	Returns or sets the degree of transparency of the specified fill, shadow, or line as a value between 0.0 (opaque) and 1.0 (clear). Read/write.
Type	Represent the type of fill. Read-only.
Visible	Returns or sets the visibility of the specified object or the formatting applied to the specified object. Read/write.
