Gradient and bitmap fills
Gradient fills provide a gradation or spectrum of colours spreading between two
or more points on an object. A gradient fill has an editable path with nodes that
mark the origin of each of these key colours. A bitmap fill uses a named
bitmap—often a material, pattern, or background image—to fill an object.

Bitmap
You can apply preset gradient and bitmap fills from the Swatches tab to the fill
or outline of a shape or text frame; table cells as well as artistic, frame, and table
text can also take a gradient or bitmap fill. The fill's path on an object's fill or
line can also be varied for different effects (see PagePlus Help).
