Example
This example sets the interior fill of the first two series and the plot area of the first chart in ChartSpace1.
Sub Format_Interior_Colors()
Dim chConstants
Dim serSeries1
Dim serSeries2
Set chConstants = ChartSpace1.Constants
Set serSeries1 = ChartSpace1.Charts(0).SeriesCollection(0)
Set serSeries2 = ChartSpace1.Charts(0).SeriesCollection(1)
' Set the interior fill of the first series to a one-color gradient.
serSeries1.Interior.SetOneColorGradient chConstants.chGradientDiagonalDown, _
chConstants.chGradientVariantCenter, 0.2, "Blue"
' Set the interior fill of the second series to a preset gradient.
serSeries2.Interior.SetPresetGradient chConstants.chGradientFromCenter, _
chConstants.chGradientVariantEnd, chConstants.chGradientDaybreak
' Set the interior fill of the plot area to a pattern.
ChartSpace1.Charts(0).PlotArea.Interior.SetPatterned chConstants.chPattern10Percent, _
"Yellow", "Blue"
