Attribute Descriptions for GRADIENTFILLSYMBOL:

Attribute	Usage	Back to Top
antialiasing	Used to make edges of labels and symbols smoother. When set to true, antialiasing is active. Note that the time to generate a map may significantly increase when antialiasing is turned on.
finishcolor	End color using RGB values.
overlap	Determines if labels can overlap this symbol. When true, labels can overlap. When false, labels will not overlap the symbol. If labels are not drawing as expected, check if overlap is set to false for this symbol or any other symbol in the MapService.
startcolor	Start color using RGB values.
transparency	Value to set percentage of transparency. 1.0 is 0 percent transparent. 0.0 is 100 percent transparent.
type	Symbol type.
