Draw a gradient ellipse in different-different gradient size.



Here I mainly use four different sizes of gradient using the rectangle.

  • 150
  • 75
  • 38
  • 15

I use the size of the ellipse as 150, so in the first gradient size it will divide two colors (viz. Red & Blue) in equal size.

The main code for first type of size:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace MyBlog
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Rectangle myGradientRectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 150, 150);

            using (Graphics myGradientGraphic = this.CreateGraphics())
            {
                using (System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush myGradientBrush = new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(myGradientRectangle, Color.Red, Color.Blue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.ForwardDiagonal))
                {
                    myGradientGraphic.FillEllipse(myGradientBrush, 10, 10, 150, 150);
                }
            }           
       
}
    }
}


Output of the above code looks like the below image :

In the second size it will divide a rectangle in two equal sizes & each size of rectangle again divides into two equal sizes (viz. Red & Blue).

Main code :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace MyBlog
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Rectangle myGradientRectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 75, 75);

            using (Graphics myGradientGraphic = this.CreateGraphics())
            {
                using (System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush myGradientBrush = new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(myGradientRectangle, Color.Red, Color.Blue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.ForwardDiagonal))
                {
                    myGradientGraphic.FillEllipse(myGradientBrush, 10, 10, 150, 150);
                }
            }           
       
}
    }
}

Output of the above code looks like the image shown below:

The third size will divide the rectangle into four equal sizes & each size of rectangle is again divided into two equal sizes (viz. Red & Blue).

Main code :
 

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

 

namespace MyBlog

{

    public partial class Form1 : Form

    {

        public Form1()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            Rectangle myGradientRectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 37, 38); 
            using (Graphics myGradientGraphic = this.CreateGraphics())

            {

                using (System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush myGradientBrush = new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(myGradientRectangle, Color.Red, Color.Blue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.ForwardDiagonal))

                {

                    myGradientGraphic.FillEllipse(myGradientBrush, 10, 10, 150, 150);

                }
            }           
       
}
    }
}


The output of the above code looks like the image below:

The third size will divide a rectangle into ten equal sizes & each size of rectangle is again divided into two equal sizes (viz. Red & Blue).

Main code :
 

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

 

namespace MyBlog

{

    public partial class Form1 : Form

    {

        public Form1()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            Rectangle myGradientRectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 15, 15);

 

            using (Graphics myGradientGraphic = this.CreateGraphics())

            {

                using (System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush myGradientBrush = new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(myGradientRectangle, Color.Red, Color.Blue, System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientMode.ForwardDiagonal))

                {

                    myGradientGraphic.FillEllipse(myGradientBrush, 10, 10, 150, 150);

                }

            }           

        }

    }

}


The output of the above code looks like the image shown below:
