A gradient transitioning between two colors between a start and end angle.

## Syntax

```xml
<SweepGradient centerX="float" centerY="float"
                  startAngle="float" endAngle="float"
                  colors="argb-color argb-color" positions="float float" />
```

## Attributes

The `SweepGradient` element has the following attributes:

### Required attributes

The following attributes are required:

`centerX`

:   The x-coordinate of the center of the radius.

    This attribute is [transformable](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/transform/transform).

`centerY`

:   The y-coordinate of the center of the radius.

    This attribute is [transformable](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/transform/transform).

`startAngle`

:   The angle (in degrees) to start the gradient.

    This attribute is [transformable](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/transform/transform).

`endAngle`

:   The angle (in degrees) to end the gradient.

    This attribute is [transformable](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/transform/transform).

`colors`

:   A space-separated list of colors. You must specify each color using either the
    ARGB format (`#ff000000` = opaque black) or the RGB format (`#000000` = black).

`positions`

:   A space-separated list of floats. The relative positions \[0..1\] of each
    corresponding color in the colors attribute. If this is an empty string, the
    colors are distributed evenly along the gradient line.

### Optional attributes

The following attributes are optional:

`direction`
:   The direction of the sweep. Either `CLOCKWISE` or `COUNTER_CLOCKWISE`.
    Defaults to `CLOCKWISE`.

## Inner elements

The `SweepGradient` element can contain :

- Between 0 and 4 [`Transform`](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/transform/transform) elements.
- [`Reference`](https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/wff/common/reference/reference)
