Graphics context Docs

[Christopher Barker]

Hi all,

I've started the very beginning of poking around with GraphicsContext. 
I'm hoping to make use of it for FloatCanvas. However, I'm unable to 
find any overview-type docs. Is there such a thing anywhere?

Anyway, the topic at hand:

I'm trying to figure out how to draw a line (maybe a polyline, actually) 
that "fades away" -- that is, it starts alpha=255 and ends at alpha=0.

I found CreateLinearGradientBrush(), which is almost what I want, but 
since I'm drawing a line, not really. Are there any Gradient Pens?

Otherwise, I guess I have to draw a really skinny polygon with a 
GradientBrush, but that sure feels kludgy.

-thanks,
-Chris
