RadialGradient

This defines a radial gradient fill for an enclosed area. The bounds of the gradient are specified with a center point and a pair of elliptical radii over which the gradient is rendered. A gradient can have up to eight stop points each defining a percentage offset from the start of the ramp and a color. Colors are interpolated between the stop points from left to right to create the color ramp. At least two gradient stop points must be specified. All area to the left of the ramp are padded with the first ramp color and all colors to tight of the ramp are padded with the final color. When the radii are different values the ramp can be rotated around the base point. The color offsets of stop points must be in ascending order and where two adjacent stop points are specified with the same offset all colors to the left of the specified offset will ramp to the first color and colors to the right will ramp from the second color.

Attributes

cx	X coordinate for the center point of the gradient.
Type	Float
Default Value	0
cy	Y coordinate for the center point of the gradient.
Type	Float
Default Value	0
rx	The X radius of the gradient.
Type	Float
Value Range	>0
Default Value	None
ry	The Y radius of the gradient.
Type	Float
Value Range	>0
Default Value	None
rotate	Optional attribute indicating a clockwise rotation in degrees of the gradient about the base location. Only used when the rx and ry attributes are different.
Type	Float
Default Value	0
index	Specifies the index of the current entry in the table. Informational attribute produced on decompilation. Not used on input.
Type	Integer
linearRGB	Flash renders all gradients in a manner that produces different output from those of other applications. Flash 8 has added a new flag to gradient fills that permits the gradient to be interpolated using a linear RGB interpolation which is used for SVG-like gradients.
Values	no The gradient should be rendered using normal Flash interpolation yes The gradient should be rendered using an SVG-compatible interpolation
Default Value	no
spreadMethod	Prior to Flash 8, the color outside the defined gradient box was the same color as the terminal gradient colors. Flash 8 provides additional control over the colors outside of the gradient box by allowing two additional overflow modes: 'repeat', and 'reflect'
Values	pad The colors outside the gradient box are painted with the terminal colors of the gradient repeat The gradient box is repeated for the entire fill area reflect The gradient box is mirrored creating a reflected gradient for the entire fill area
Default Value	pad
xDisp	Prior to Flash 8, all radial gradients were uniform and it was not possible to adjust the center of the gradient without modifying the bounds of the gradient. The xDisp attribute was added in FLash 8 to allow the ceter of the gradient to be shifted left or right along the X axis woutout modifying the bounds of the gradient. This permits must more realistic effects alloing different gradient densities from a single gradient definition.
Type	Float
From Value	-100
To Value	+100
Default Value	0
