HTML5 Canvas Radial Gradient

 

Introduction:

The color transition with a cone placed between two circles is defined by radial gradient.
Radial gradient is created by calling radialGradient() method.
and passing in two circles and providing source and destination circle radius.
Two imaginary circles can briefly determin or define Radial Gradient.
One circle is the starting circle and and the second circle is ending circle.
Gradient get started from the first and moves toward second circle.

Syntax



var gradient = context.createRadialGradient(x0,y0,
r0,x1,y1,r1);

createRadialGradient takes six Parameters

1 x0

This is the x-coordinate(in pixels),of the starting circle of the gradient.Its value is in number.

2. y0

This is the y-coordinate(in pixels),of the starting circle of the gradient.Its value is in number.

3 . r0

r0 is the radius of starting circle.

4. x1

This is the x-coordinate(in pixels),of the ending circle of the gradient.Its value is in number.

5. y1

This is the y-coordinate(in pixels),of the ending circle of the gradient.Its value is in number.

6. r1

ris the radius of ending circle.
