Is it possible to use the ICanvas properties and methods to draw gradient filled rectangles?
Or do I need to use ICanvas::HandleDC() and GDI+ to do it?

Hi thatnerdyguy,
Yes, this is possible and you would need to use TeeChart's Canvas using m_Chart1.GetCanvas() as told in Tutorial 13 - Custom drawing on the Chart Panel.
However, to achieve what you request, I think that would be much easier using annotation or rectangle tools instead of custom drawing on TeeChart's canvas. Those tools already support gradient fill.
