Moving the center of the radial gradient?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

is it possible to move the center of the radial gradient? If not, please consider it as a feature request.

When you choose the Gradient/Fill Tool and select the 'Radial' fill type, you get a fill line with a node at each end. Drag on one node to change the radius of the fill, or drag on the other node to move the centre. To change the profile of the fill, move the little line that initially appears at the halfway point.

The 8 ball video may help some, (towards the end)

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Please see the attachment to see what happens when I move the white node and the little vertical bar. (I also changed the main fill colour to match the "I want something like this" example.)
