Looking at the GraphicsView
examples created by MAUI creators:
https://github.com/dotnet/maui-samples/tree/main/7.0/UserInterface/Views/GraphicsViewDemos
you can find some GraphicsView
examples, and specially an example that shows how to draw a reactangle with gradient (vertical, horizontal, etc..)
internal class VerticalLinearGradientPaintDrawable : IDrawable
{
public void Draw(ICanvas canvas, RectF dirtyRect)
{
LinearGradientPaint linearGradientPaint = new LinearGradientPaint
{
StartColor = Colors.Yellow,
EndColor = Colors.Green,
// StartPoint is already (0,0)
EndPoint = new Point(0, 1)
};
RectF linearRectangle = new RectF(10, 10, 200, 100);
canvas.SetFillPaint(linearGradientPaint, linearRectangle);
canvas.SetShadow(new SizeF(10, 10), 10, Colors.Grey);
canvas.FillRoundedRectangle(linearRectangle, 12);
}
}
But how to draw a path for a specific path (or polygon area)? I can't find the way.
Thanks.
I tried to find a method to draw a polygon with gradient but have not found the way to do it.
Update:
Define in code behind:
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
Polygon polygon = new Polygon() { WidthRequest=70,HeightRequest=80,Stroke=Colors.Transparent};
PointCollection points = new PointCollection();
points.Add(new Point(0, 0));
points.Add(new Point(40, 10));
points.Add(new Point(70, 80));
points.Add(new Point(10, 50));
polygon.Points = points;
GradientStopCollection gradientStops = new GradientStopCollection();
gradientStops.Add(new GradientStop(color: Colors.Yellow, offset: 0));
gradientStops.Add(new GradientStop(color: Colors.Green, offset: 1));
LinearGradientBrush linearGradientBrush = new LinearGradientBrush(gradientStops,startPoint:new Point(0,0),endPoint:new Point(1,0));
polygon.Fill = linearGradientBrush;
mystack.Children.Add(polygon);
You could try using a Linear gradient brushes and Polygon . Consider the following code:
<StackLayout BackgroundColor="AliceBlue">
<Polygon Points="0,0 40,10 70,80 10,50"
Stroke="Transparent"
StrokeThickness="5" >
<Polygon.Fill>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="0,1">
<GradientStop Color="Yellow" Offset="0" />
<GradientStop Color="Green" Offset="1" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Polygon.Fill>
</Polygon>
</StackLayout>
Vertical linear gradient result (EndPoint="0,1"):
Horizontal linear gradient (EndPoint="1,0"):
Diagonal linear gradient (EndPoint="1,1"):
Hope it helps.
