Re: [AGG] Gradient function for shape-blended round rect?

[Lorne L. <lo...@in...>]

Do a search for "gradient" and "contour" in this mailing list, someone
posted some code to do contour gradients which might be what you're
looking for.

(It wasn't terribly fast, though.)

So for a rectangle it would be a series of rectangles. For an ellipse, a series of ellipses. Unlike the agg demo, my gradient fills are always "stretch to fit". The origin and scale factors are calculated to precisely fit the enclosing shape (polygon, round rect, rect, ellipse, or arc).
