# Gradient Styles Gradient styles are commonly supported and can be set in the **style** attribute or a **.css** file. Gradients enable smooth transition between two or more specified colors. This framework supports two gradient styles: linear gradient and repeating linear gradient. ## Linear Gradient/Repeating Linear Gradient To use the gradient style, you need to specify the transition direction and transition color. ### Transition Direction The available values are as follows: - **direction**: gradient by direction - **angle**: gradient by angle ``` background: linear-gradient(direction/angle, color, color, ...); background: repeating-linear-gradient(direction/angle, color, color, ...); ``` ### Transition Color The following four colors are supported: #ff0000, #ffff0000, rgb (255, 0, 0) and rgba (255, 0, 0, 1). At least two colors must be specified. - Name | Name | Type | Default Value | Mandatory | Description | | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | direction | to <side-or-corner> <side-or-corner> = [left \| right] \|\| [top \| bottom] | to bottom (gradient from top to bottom) | No | Transition direction. For example, **to right** (gradient from left to right) or **to bottom right** (from the top left to the bottom right). | | angle | <deg> | 180deg | No | Transition direction. Angle between the gradient line and the y-axis (in the clockwise direction), with the geometric center of the element being the origin of coordinates and the horizontal axis being the x-axis. | | color | <color> [<length>\|<percentage>] | - | Yes | Colors among which smooth transitions are rendered. | - Example 1. Gradient from top to bottom (default) ``` #gradient { height: 300px; width: 600px; /* Gradient starts from red at the top to green at the bottom. */ background: linear-gradient(red, #00ff00); } ``` ![](figures/111.png) 1. Gradient at an angle of 45° ``` /* Gradient at an angle of 45°, changing from red to green */ background: linear-gradient(45deg, rgb(255,0,0),rgb(0, 255, 0)); ``` ​ ![](figures/222.png) 1. Gradient from left to right ``` /* Gradient from left to right, which is available in the 270 px width between the left 90 px and the left 360 px (600*0.6) */ background: linear-gradient(to right, rgb(255,0,0) 90px, rgb(0, 255, 0) 60%); ``` ![](figures/333.png) 1. Repeating gradient ``` /* Repeating gradient from left to right, the area of which is 30 px (60-30) and the opacity is 0.5 */ background: repeating-linear-gradient(to right, rgba(255, 255, 0, 1) 30px,rgba(0, 0, 255, .5) 60px); ``` ![](figures/444.png)
