    Diffuse Property (FillEffect)
    In This Topic
    The diffuse color of the FillEffectBase.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Property Diffuse As Color
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As FillEffect
    Dim value As Color
     
    instance.Diffuse = value
     
    value = instance.Diffuse
    public Color Diffuse {get; set;}
    Remarks
    The get method of this property will always return the same value as the Color property. Setting the Diffuse color property however does not modify the Ambient component of the material attached to the fill effect. This allows you to fine tune the material properties using the Ambient, Diffuse, Specular and Shininess properties of the FillEffectBase.
    Example
    The following example sets a white color to the left chart wall, but modifies the diffuse material color additionally because it was modified by the SetSolidColor function. As a result the wall will appear darker when you turn on lighting.
    Dim chart As Chart = CType((ChartControl.Charts(0)), Chart)
    Dim fillEffect As FillEffectBase =  chart.Wall(ChartWallType.Left).FillEffect 
    fillEffect.SetSolidColor(Color.White)
    fillEffect.Diffuse = Color.FromArgb(125, 125, 125)
    Chart chart = (Chart)(ChartControl.Charts[0]);
    FillEffectBase fillEffect = chart.Wall(ChartWallType.Left).FillEffect;
    fillEffect.SetSolidColor(Color.White);
    fillEffect.Diffuse = Color.FromArgb(125, 125, 125);
