Radial & elliptical gradients error?


Recommended Posts

The eliptical one has an extra handle that enables you to squash the gradient on one axis. However, be aware that there is a little 'Maintain aspect ratio' toggle on the tool menu that makes the handles the same, so uncheck if you want an eliptical gradient.

@LaraJ Sorry, couldn't seem to reply again there... not sure if the forums are working quite right here.

As Hens has now said, You need to be using the gradient tool in the left toolbar (looks like a rainbow circle with a line on it). Using that will show the tool handles that allow you to position the gradient and rotate it, and indeed set the length of the axis in both directions on the eliptical gradient. The top toolbar is for tweakng really, best to use the gradient tool as a first step ... if you haven't used it, you'll love it, it's so fast and easy and you get the realtime preview as you drag it around, so much better than working with a little dialogue box.
