FillFormat object (Publisher)

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

Remarks

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

Use the Shape.Fill property to return a FillFormat object.

Example

The following example adds a shape to the active document and then sets the gradient and color for the shape's fill.

Sub AddShapeAndSetFill() 
 With ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes.AddShape(Type:=msoShapeHeart, _ 
 Left:=90, Top:=90, Width:=90, Height:=80).Fill 
 .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(Red:=255, Green:=0, Blue:=0) 
 .OneColorGradient Style:=msoGradientHorizontal, _ 
 Variant:=1, Degree:=1 
 End With 
End Sub
