flash.display.InterpolationMethod (Flex™ 2 Language Reference)

Package	flash.display
Class	public final class InterpolationMethod
Inheritance	InterpolationMethod Object

The InterpolationMethod class provides values for the interpolationMethod parameter in the Graphics.beginGradientFill() and Graphics.lineGradientStyle() methods. This parameter determines the RGB space that Flash Player uses when rendering the gradient.

	Property	Defined by
		constructor : Object A reference to the class object or constructor function for a given object instance.	Object
		prototype : Object [static] A reference to the prototype object of a class or function object.	Object

Constant detail

LINEAR_RGB

constant

public static const LINEAR_RGB:String = "linearRGB"

Specifies that the linear RGB interpolation method should be used. This means that Flash Player uses an RGB color space based on a linear RGB color model.

RGB

constant

public static const RGB:String = "rgb"

Specifies that the RGB interpolation method should be used. This means that Flash Player uses the exponential sRGB (standard RGB) space when rendering the gradient. The sRGB space is a W3C-endorsed standard that defines a non-linear conversion between red, green, and blue component values and the actual intensity of the visible component color.

For example, consider a simple linear gradient between two colors (with the spreadMethod parameter set to SpreadMethod.REFLECT). The different interpolation methods affect the appearance as follows:
