Property Detail
focalPointRatioproperty
focalPointRatio:Number

Language Version : ActionScript 3.0
Product Version : Flex 3
Runtime Versions : Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Sets the location of the start of the radial fill.

Valid values are from -1.0 to 1.0. A value of -1.0 sets the focal point (or, start of the gradient fill) on the left of the bounding Rectangle. A value of 1.0 sets the focal point on the right of the bounding Rectangle.

If you use this property in conjunction with the angle property, this value specifies the degree of distance from the center that the focal point occurs. For example, with an angle of 45 and focalPointRatio of 0.25, the focal point is slightly lower and to the right of center. If you set focalPointRatio to 0, the focal point is in the middle of the bounding Rectangle.

If you set focalPointRatio to 1, the focal point is all the way to the bottom right corner of the bounding Rectangle.

The default value is 0.0.

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

Constructor Detail
RadialGradientStroke()Constructor
public function RadialGradientStroke(weight:Number = 1, pixelHinting:Boolean = false, scaleMode:String = normal, caps:String = round, joints:String = round, miterLimit:Number = 3)

Language Version : ActionScript 3.0
Product Version : Flex 3
Runtime Versions : Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Constructor.

Parameters
weight:Number (default = 1) — Specifies the line weight, in pixels. This parameter is optional, with a default value of 1.
 
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 = round) — 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 CapsStyle.ROUND.
 
joints:String (default = round) — 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 JointStyle.ROUND. This parameter is optional, with a default value of JointStyle.ROUND.
 
miterLimit:Number (default = 3) — 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 3.
