fillMode

Syntax

    member(whichCastMember).fillMode

Description

Vector shape cast member property; indicates the fill method for the shape, using the following possible values:

| `#none`—The shape is transparent
| `#solid`—The shape uses a single fill color
| `#gradient`—The shape uses a gradient between two colors

This property can be tested and set when the shape is closed; open shapes have no fill.

To see an example of `fillMode` used in a completed movie, see the Vector Shapes movie in the Learning\Lingo Examples folder inside the Director application folder.
