CGGradient in an CGPath

Question

Is it possible to draw a gradient in a path on the iPhone?

I\'m looking for a replacement of the mac os x method

-(void)drawInBezierPath:(NSBezierPa

Yes, I think so if I understand your question. It is a bit involved but here is a good example of doing it:

This is done with Cocoa and not Cocoa Touch but it translates with everything bu NSColor. You have to use UIColor instead. Basically, you have to create a gradient function and then use:

CGShadingCreateAxial()

to determine the value of your gradient.

Or are you wanting to have a line with a gradient?
