    \qmlproperty Gradient QtGraphicalEffects1::ConicalGradient::gradient

    A gradient is defined by two or more colors, which are blended seamlessly.
    The colors are specified as a set of GradientStop child items, each of which
    defines a position on the gradient (from 0.0 to 1.0), and a color.
    The position of each GradientStop is defined by the position property.
    The color is defined by the color property.

/*!
    \qmlproperty variant QtGraphicalEffects1::ConicalGradient::source

    This property defines the item that is going to be filled with gradient. Source
    item gets rendered into an intermediate pixel buffer and the alpha values
    from the result are used to determine the gradient's pixels visibility in
    the display.
    The default value for source is undefined and in that case whole effect area
    is filled with gradient.

/*!

    This property defines the starting angle where the color at the gradient
    position of 0.0 is rendered. Colors at larger position values are rendered
    into larger angle values and blended seamlessly. Angle values increase
    clockwise.

/*!
    \qmlproperty real QtGraphicalEffects1::ConicalGradient::horizontalOffset
    \qmlproperty real QtGraphicalEffects1::ConicalGradient::verticalOffset

    The HorizontalOffset and verticalOffset properties define the offset in
    pixels for the center point of the gradient compared to the item center.

    The value ranges from -inf to inf. By default, the properties are set to \c 0.

/*!
    \qmlproperty bool QtGraphicalEffects1::ConicalGradient::cached

    This property allows the effect output pixels to be cached in order to improve the rendering performance.

    Every time the source or effect properties are changed, the pixels in the cache must be updated.
    Memory consumption is increased, because an extra buffer of memory is required for storing the effect output.

    It is recommended to disable the cache when the source or the effect properties are animated.

    By default, the property is set to \c false.
