Fill Types |
Scroll |
In KOMPAS-3D, fills of the following types can be constructed.
•Monochromatic fill, which is a uniform color of the selected area.
• Gradient fill with a smooth or incremental color change, represented by several types (linear, cylindrical, angular, conical, radial and square) and giving the effect of volume to images of a graphic document.
To select the fill type, use the Type button group on the Parameter Panel.
Description of the types of gradient fills presented in the table. For clarity, examples with step-by-step color change, zero starting point shift and fill angle are shown. More details on gradient fill parameters...

Description of the fill type |
|
|
|
Linear gradient – color transition from the starting line to the ending. The starting and ending lines are on the parallel sides of the dimensional rectangle. For linear fill, there is no starting point. |
|
|
Cylindrical Gradient – color transition from the starting line to the ending. The end lines are the sides of the dimensional rectangle, parallel to the starting line. |
|
|
Angular gradient – color transition from the initial beam to the final in a circular direction. The initial beam is separated from the final at an angle of 360 degrees. The starting and ending lines are the rays drawn from the starting point. |
|
|
Conical gradient – color transition from the initial beam to the final in a circular direction. The initial beam is separated from the final at an angle of 180 degrees. The starting and ending lines are the rays drawn from the starting point. |
|
|
Radial gradient – color transition in the radial direction from the starting point to the point most distant from it on the side of the dimensional rectangle. |
|
|
Square gradient – color transition in directions perpendicular to the sides of the dimensional rectangle. The starting color is at the starting point, the ending color is on the outermost side of the dimensional rectangle. |
