This code draws the following image onscreen:
spreadMethod:String [optional] - Added in Flash Player 8. Either "pad", "reflect," or
"repeat," which controls the mode of the gradient fill. The default value is "pad".
For example, consider a simple linear gradient between two colors:
import flash.geom.*;
var fillType:String = "linear"
var colors:Array = [0xFF0000, 0x0000FF];
var alphas:Array = [100, 100];
var ratios:Array = [0x00, 0xFF];
var matrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.createGradientBox(20, 20, 0, 0, 0);
var spreadMethod:String = "pad";
this.beginGradientFill(fillType, colors, alphas, ratios, matrix,
spreadMethod);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(0, 100);
this.lineTo(100, 100);
this.lineTo(100, 0);
