  Specifically I was wanting to create, name and save a gradient map as a preset on the iPad

Ok that seems straight forward, now how do I select and use the preset I made and saved.

If I go to swatches and select gradients I see some app gradients but nothing I saved.

So where can I find it?

thanx

Havent actually looked but according to forum on the desktop app, they are found in the corresponding adjustments studio.

As far as I know, no.

Found them, dont know why visible now, maybe restarted the app, dunno.

Or you were looking in the wrong place, or in the wrong app. You would find them in the Adjustments panel, but only in Photo (not Designer, for example), and only when you have selected Gradient Map in the pull-down at the top of the panel (rather than selecting Adjustments, for example, in that pulldown).

Technically it would be a walk through the part.

  • Gradient map is a sorted list of nodes, at positions ranging from 0 to 1, defining colors. They get applied based on pixel lightness values, ranging from 0 to 1.
  • Gradient is a sorted list of nodes, at positions ranging from 0 to 1, defining colors. They get applied based on pixel positions (distance from starting point), ranging from 0 to 1 (after normalization, dividing by distance of last to first node), using some path curve like linear, radial, elliptical, conical.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

😊 Your English better than my german but the expression is “A walk in the park” meaning easy, leisurely, relaxing, enjoyable. 😊
