Note: If color is set as a string (e.g. 'red .5') it has a priority over opt_opacity, which means: fill set like this rect.fill('red 0.3', 0.7) will have 0.3 opacity.

There are three modes:

• ObjectBoundingBox preserving an angle
• ObjectBoundingBox no angle preservation
• UserSpaceOnUse

Modes:

ObjectBoundingBox preserving an angle
If boolean is passed it says how gradient behaves, specificaly how gradient line angle behaves. If true - it is ObjectBoundingBox with angle preservation. If angle is preserved, in any shape angle looks as one expects it to see.
Note: By default gradient vector for any shape, which sides are not in 1:1 proportions, will not look as expected, because browser transforms this angle.

ObjectBoundingBox no angle preservation
If false is passed - that's ObjectBoundingBox no angle preservation. In this case default behaviour comes up - gradient vector is calculated for a shape with 1:1 side proportions.

UserSpaceOnUse
If anychart.graphics.math.Rect is passed - that'sUserSpaceOnUse mode. In this mode gradient gets its own size and coordinates. Shapes with such gradient will be colored only in those parts, which are covered by this custom gradient. Read more about this mode at gradientUnits. Angle is always preserved in this mode.
