Hi sparky...........

You can't shade half a cell any way with the normal background coloration
technique. You can however, for special cases, create a drawing object of
the shape you want and color it and place it in a cell..........it would
look similar........

More precisely, you can position a drawing object over a cell - only
values and formulae can be put *in* a cell.

When positioning the drawing, make sure you use Format/object and choose
Move and size with cells.
 
Another technique is to use the "Rectangle" drawing object, and hold the Alt
key while you drag the shape onto the cells. This will cause the object to
"snap to" the edges of the cell.

I like to select the "Colors and Lines" tab, "Fill", and on the drop down
"Color," select "Fill effects.." Select one of the "Diagonal" gradients.
Adjust "Transparency" if desired.
