# `GSShape.fillGradient`

*Instance Property*

The gradient used for the fill.

## Declaration

```swift
var fillGradient: GSGradient? { get set }
```

```objc
@property (nonatomic, strong) GSGradient * fillGradient;
```

```python
fillGradient() -> GSGradient
setFillGradient_(fillGradient: GSGradient)
```

## Discussion

The gradient takes precedence over the fill color. Set the value to `nil` to remove the gradient fill paint.
