Gradient following an arbitrary path

[smg]

May be very useful to have the possibility to fill an arbitrary path (stroke) with a gradient who it's front color is perpendicular to the path in every point, from start to the end.

Se attached file on the current behaviour, where the front of the gradient is parallel to the sheet.

Totally agree. I asked for this feature a couple of years ago.

In the meantime, if I have understood your requirements properly, you can try using a Textured Image Brush as shown in my attached image.

Thanks, I will try

It’s not a perfect solution – and the exported result will be rasterised, because it’s a raster brush – but it’s probably worth a try for some situations.
