angle:Number [read-write]

By default, the LinearGradientStroke defines a transition from left to right across the control. Use the angle property to control the transition direction. For example, a value of 180.0 causes the transition to occur from right to left, rather than from left to right.

The default value is 0.0.

Implementation
public function get angle():Number
public function set angle(value:Number):void

caps:String [read-write]

A value from the CapsStyle class that specifies the type of caps at the end of lines.

Valid values are CapsStyle.NONE, CapsStyle.ROUND, and CapsStyle.SQUARE. A null value is equivalent to CapsStyle.ROUND.

The default value is null.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get caps():String
public function set caps(value:String):void

interpolationMethod:String [read-write]

A value from the InterpolationMethod class that specifies which interpolation method to use.

Valid values are InterpolationMethod.LINEAR_RGB and InterpolationMethod.RGB.

The default value is InterpolationMethod.RGB.

Implementation
public function get interpolationMethod():String
public function set interpolationMethod(value:String):void

joints:String [read-write]

A value from the JointStyle class that specifies the type of joint appearance used at angles.

Valid values are JointStyle.BEVEL, JointStyle.MITER, and JointStyle.ROUND. A null value is equivalent to JoinStyle.ROUND.

The default value is null.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get joints():String
public function set joints(value:String):void

miterLimit:Number [read-write]

A number that indicates the limit at which a miter is cut off.

Valid values range from 0 to 255 (and values outside of that range are rounded to 0 or 255).

This value is only used if the jointStyle is set to JointStyle.MITER.

The miterLimit value represents the length that a miter can extend beyond the point at which the lines meet to form a joint. The value expresses a factor of the line thickness. For example, with a miterLimit factor of 2.5 and a thickness of 10 pixels, the miter is cut off at 25 pixels.

The default value is 0.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get miterLimit():Number
public function set miterLimit(value:Number):void

pixelHinting:Boolean [read-write]

A Boolean value that specifies whether to hint strokes to full pixels.

This affects both the position of anchors of a curve and the line stroke size itself.

With pixelHinting set to true, Flash Player and AIR hint line widths to full pixel widths. With pixelHinting set to false, disjoints can appear for curves and straight lines.

The default value is false.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get pixelHinting():Boolean
public function set pixelHinting(value:Boolean):void

scaleMode:String [read-write]

A value from the LineScaleMode class that specifies which scale mode to use. Value valids are:

LineScaleMode.NORMAL Always scale the line thickness when the object is scaled (the default).
LineScaleMode.NONE Never scale the line thickness.
LineScaleMode.VERTICAL Do not scale the line thickness if the object is scaled vertically only.
LineScaleMode.HORIZONTAL Do not scale the line thickness if the object is scaled horizontally only.

The default value is LineScaleMode.NORMAL.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get scaleMode():String
public function set scaleMode(value:String):void

spreadMethod:String [read-write]

A value from the SpreadMethod class that specifies which spread method to use.

Value values are SpreadMethod.PAD, SpreadMethod.REFLECT, and SpreadMethod.REPEAT.

The default value is SpreadMethod.PAD.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get spreadMethod():String
public function set spreadMethod(value:String):void

weight:Number [read-write]

The line weight, in pixels. For many charts, the default value is 1 pixel.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
public function get weight():Number
public function set weight(value:Number):void

public function LinearGradientStroke(weight:Number = 0, pixelHinting:Boolean = false, scaleMode:String = "normal", caps:String = null, joints:String = null, miterLimit:Number = 0)

Constructor.

Parameters

	`weight:Number` (default = `0`) — Specifies the line weight, in pixels. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `0`.

	`pixelHinting:Boolean` (default = `false`) — A Boolean value that specifies whether to hint strokes to full pixels. This affects both the position of anchors of a curve and the line stroke size itself. With `pixelHinting` set to `true`, Flash Player and AIR hint line widths to full pixel widths. With `pixelHinting` set to `false`, disjoints can appear for curves and straight lines. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `false`.

	`scaleMode:String` (default = "`normal`") — A value from the LineScaleMode class that specifies which scale mode to use. Valid values are `LineScaleMode.HORIZONTAL`, `LineScaleMode.NONE`, `LineScaleMode.NORMAL`, and `LineScaleMode.VERTICAL`. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `LineScaleMode.NORMAL`.

	`caps:String` (default = `null`) — A value from the CapsStyle class that specifies the type of caps at the end of lines. Valid values are `CapsStyle.NONE`, `CapsStyle.ROUND`, and `CapsStyle.SQUARE`. A `null` value is equivalent to `CapsStyle.ROUND`. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `null`.

	`joints:String` (default = `null`) — A value from the JointStyle class that specifies the type of joint appearance used at angles. Valid values are `JointStyle.BEVEL`, `JointStyle.MITER`, and `JointStyle.ROUND`. A `null` value is equivalent to `JoinStyle.ROUND`. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `null`.

	`miterLimit:Number` (default = `0`) — A number that indicates the limit at which a miter is cut off. Valid values range from 1 to 255 (and values outside of that range are rounded to 1 or 255). This value is only used if the `jointStyle` property is set to `miter`. The `miterLimit` value represents the length that a miter can extend beyond the point at which the lines meet to form a joint. The value expresses a factor of the line `thickness`. For example, with a `miterLimit` factor of 2.5 and a `thickness` of 10 pixels, the miter is cut off at 25 pixels. This parameter is optional, with a default value of `0`.

public function apply(g:Graphics):void

Applies the properties to the specified Graphics object.

Parameters

g:Graphics — The Graphics object to which the LinearGradientStroke styles are applied.
