TheRogue Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I'm having a moment! I'm trying to apply a gradient to a picture. That is to fade out the picture to the layer underneath it. It's from left to right etc. Left being the photograph in full opacity, fading to the under layer colour. Direction of fade isn't important, for this, I just can't remember how to do it!

GarryP Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 The best approach might depend on your images and which application you are using but, in Designer, for instance, the Transparency Tool will probably do what you need from how I understand your requirements.

In this instance I've just used transparency tool in Designer mode of Publisher. But I can see, either will work.
