When the Type menu is set to Gradient, additional controls are displayed where the gradient
colors’ direction can be customized.
Gradient Type
This menu selects the form used to draw the gradient. There are six choices:
 Linear: Draws the gradient along a straight line from the starting color stop to the
ending color stop.
 Reflect: Draws the gradient by mirroring the linear gradient on either side of the
starting point.
 Square: Draws the gradient by using a square pattern when the starting point is at the
center of the image.
 Cross: Draws the gradient using a cross pattern when the starting point is at the center
of the image.
 Radial: Draws the gradient in a circular pattern when the starting point is at the center
of the image.
 Angle: Draws the gradient in a counterclockwise sweep when the starting point is at
the center of the image.
Viewer Start and End Position
The Start and End positions in the viewer are represented by two red control points connected
by a green line. They determine where the gradient begins and ends.
