Example

This example sets the interior fill of the first two series and the plot area of the first chart in ChartSpace1.

  Sub Format_Interior_Fills()

    Dim chConstants
    Dim serSeries1
    Dim serSeries2

    Set chConstants = ChartSpace1.Constants

    Set serSeries1 = ChartSpace1.Charts(0).SeriesCollection(0)
    Set serSeries2 = ChartSpace1.Charts(0).SeriesCollection(1)

    ' Set the interior fill of the first series to a two-color gradient.
    serSeries1.Interior.SetTwoColorGradient chConstants.chGradientDiagonalDown, _
               chConstants.chGradientVariantCenter, "Blue", "Silver"

    ' Set the interior fill of the second series to a solid color.
    serSeries2.Interior.SetSolid "Purple"

    ' Set the interior fill of the plot area to a preset texture.
    ChartSpace1.Charts(0).PlotArea.Interior.SetTextured _
              chConstants.chTextureParchment, chConstants.chTile
