I think that came out wrong. Let me try again...

    origin = 0, 0
    destination = width, 0
    start_color = 0, selected_color
    stop_color = 1, complement(selected_color)
    pattern = qah.Pattern.from_line(origin, destination, (start_color,
stop_color))

Better?
I wasn't sure what the numbers 0 and 1 are doing for the colour_stops.
