Hi,

 

I know that controlling styles in PA is pretty poor...but I wonder if there is a way to make things look smarter. 

 

My App has a good amount of solid colour...is there a way to have a colour fade in a box? Like left to right it goes from a dark yellow to a light yellow?

 

Thanks!

    I agree it should be simple.   An Idea has already been submitted for this feature.   You can go here and upvote it.

    So I have managed to get another long way to do something that should be quite simple!

    "<div style='width:"&'Register Selecter'.Width&";height:"&'Register Selecter'.Height-1&"px;background: rgb(255,123,103);
    background: linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(255,123,103,1) 0%, rgba(255,220,237,1) 80%)'></div>"

      Making my background a HTML text and formatting it with the above.

    I had looked at colorfade, but that works on the complete block.  I was hoping there would be a gradient  capability. Seems not to be.
