Editing the fill path
When you select a fillable object, the Fill Tool becomes available (otherwise it's
grayed out). If the object uses a gradient fill, you'll see the fill path displayed as
a line when the Fill Tool is selected. Nodes mark where the spectrum between
each key color begins and ends. Adjusting the node positions determines the
actual spread of colors between nodes. You can also edit a gradient fill by
adding, deleting, or changing key colors.
