So if we make a basic class for ShadedObject or ShadedShape what will be
our goal for that object ?

Currently it is only a rectangle, but any geometric forms are possible ?
If I go on for any geometric forms, than the ShadedObject/ShadedShape
sounds to me more like a background option for a geometric form.

Do we now come back to a background discussion again Robin ?
(discussion from the background options for charts last week)
