You can change the type of gradient at any time. When you change the type of
gradient, all colors and options that you have defined will be retained.
Define your gradient using the following options and controls: 8
Aspect Ratio: The aspect ratio is used to define and control the shape ●
of the radial gradient. The default aspect ratio for each radial gradient you
create is dependent on the item shape you have selected. If you change
the size/shape of the selected item, the aspect ratio will automatically
adjust. This option is only available for radial gradients.
Angle: define the angle of the gradient. ●
The Gradient Slider gives you a preview of how your gradient will appear. ●
The color stop icons ( ) are positioned at the beginning and end of each
two color gradient. You can click and drag a color stop to change its
location, or you can select any color stop and use the options below to
define the color and shade ( ), opacity ( ), and location ( ) numerically.
The icon is positioned midway between two color stops. You can click
and drag the midway icon to change its location, or you can select it and
change its location numerically.
The midway icons location must remain between 13% and 87%. You will not
be able to drag it beyond, or enter a value outside of, this restriction.
Add colors using the Gradient Slider by clicking anywhere between two color
stops to add a new color stop. A plus symbol ( ) will appear next to your cursor
when you are at a place that allows you to insert a new color stop. You can then
define the color, shade, opacity and location of the new color stop.
When defining the color, you can choose any color that is available in this
project, or you can select to create a new color at this time. To add a color
stop and define a new color at the same time, Shift+Click when adding the
color stop. The Edit Color dialog displays, allowing you to define the new
color.
You can delete any color stop by clicking and dragging it down.
Click the reverse icon to reverse the gradient. ●
