Returns a value that indicates how dark or light a one-color gradient fill is. A value of 0 (zero) means that black is mixed in with the shape's foreground color to form the gradient; a value of 1 means that white is mixed in; and values between 0 and 1 mean that a darker or lighter shade of the foreground color is mixed in. Read-only Single.
This property is read-only. Use the OneColorGradient method to set the gradient degree for the fill.
Example
This example adds a rectangle to the active document and sets the degree of its fill gradient to match that of the shape named "Rectangle 2." If Rectangle 2 doesn't have a one-color gradient fill, this example fails.
Dim docActive As Document Dim sngGradient As Single Set docActive = ActiveDocument
