    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As CardflowView3D

    Property Value

    The Brush to apply to cards that currently do not display a surface. By default, Brushes.Gray.
    Remarks
    Cards that are in the viewport but outside the range specified by the SideCardsCount property will not display a surface until they are brought within range.
    Example

    All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Employees table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.

    The following example demonstrates how to provide an empty-surface brush, which will be applied to all cards that do not display a surface.
    <Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
      <Grid.Resources>
       <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_employees"
                                          Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=EmployeesTable}"/>
     
    
         <LinearGradientBrush x:Key="emptySurfaceBrush"
                              StartPoint="0.5,1"
                              EndPoint="0.5,0">
            <GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#FF0E0E0E"/>

            <GradientStop Offset="1" Color="#FF949494"/>
         </LinearGradientBrush>
      </Grid.Resources>
     
      <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="EmployeesGrid"
                          ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_employees}}">

       <xcdg:DataGridControl.View>      
         <xcdg:CardflowView3D SideCardsCount="1"
                              EmptySurfaceBrush="{StaticResource emptySurfaceBrush}">
