<H2><A NAME="7_16">7.16 Using a background gradient</A></H2>
<P> In addition to the background image you can also add a background
 color gradient. This gradient can be covering the entire graph, just
 the plot area or just the margins. This flexibility allows you to
 combine a background image with a background color gradient. You can
 for example use a background image in the plot area and a color
 gradient out in the margins.</P>
<P> You specify a color gradient background by calling the <A href="../ref/Graph.html#_GRAPH_SETBACKGROUNDGRADIENT">
 Graph::SetBackgroundGradient()</A> method. All details are available in
 the class reference (follow the link above). We finally give a quick
 example on what kind of effect you can achieve using this feature.<DIV class="example">

<P> Finally we like to mention that in the &quot;/utils/misc/&quot; directory you
 will find a small utility script called &quot;mkgrad.php&quot;. Running this
 script presents you with a UI that makes it a breeze to create a
 gradient image on it's own.</P>
<P> The UI for the utility is so obvious that we won't discuss it
 further, we just show it below. <IMG alt="The UI for the mkgrad.php utility"
      src="img/img/img/img/img/img/"><I> The UI for the mkgrad.php utility</I></P>
<P> In the example below this utility is used to get a more interesting
 plot area.</P>
