用API函数实现颜色渐变
方建文
颜色渐变在Windows应用程序中应用广泛，最典型的是窗口标体的背景色及Windows安装窗口的背景色等。本文就这种颜色渐变的实现，提供API函数的实现方法。
在Windows 98或Windows NT 5.0及更高版本中提供了一个新的API函数来实现渐变颜色的填充，这个函数就是GradientFill。这个函数不仅能实现方形的填充，还能实现三角形的填充，所以这种方法更有效率。API声明如下：
Public Declare Function GradientFillTriangle Lib "msimg32" Alias "GradientFill" (ByVal hDC As Long, pVertex As TRIVERTEX, ByVal dwNumVertex As Long, pMesh As GRADIENT_TRIANGLE, ByVal dwNumMesh As Long, ByVal dwMode As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function GradientFillRect Lib "msimg32" Alias "GradientFill" (ByVal hDC As Long, pVertex As TRIVERTEX, ByVal dwNumVertex As Long, pMesh As GRADIENT_RECT, ByVal dwNumMesh As Long, ByVal dwMode As Long) As Long
其中GradientFillTriangle用于三角形的填充，GradientFillRect用于矩形填充。hDC是表示要填充对象的窗口句柄；pVertex常常是一个数组，用来存放各顶点的位置及颜色信息，顶点在TRIVERTEX中定义；dwNumVertex表示顶点的个数；pMesh也常常是一个数组结构，表示组成图形的各顶点顺序，表示一个矩形用两个顶点，三角形要用三个顶点；dwNumMesh表示矩形或三角形的个数；dwMode表示填充的模式：水平填充，垂直填充，三角形填充。以下是示例程序：
在这个示例里您可以任意选择两种颜色，然后用两种颜色对一个Picture1进行渐变的填充。
