Description narcís calvet 2013-11-25 06:43:33 EST 
Setting the legend border gradient doesn't work by code nor using the chart editor (see screen-shots at the link at the URL field).

  Chart1.Legend.Frame.Fill.Gradient.Visible:=True;

BTW: It works fine in Firemonkey

This also happens with series pen.

Probably Chart1 Canvas is GDI instead of GDI+.
Pen Gradient filling is only available in GDI+ and FireMonkey canvases.
Old GDI does not allow filling stroke lines.

Also, there is no way to disable or hide the Gradient tab at Pen Editor dialog, because the dialog cannot guess which canvas has the associated owner of that pen.

It's GDI+. We set it in the "Design time options" dialog (see the screenshot).
