junihh Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Look like the gradient tool can't use document swatches for choose color and instead only use blended colors. Is there a way to use the document swatches? I did something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted July 26, 2018 Staff Share Posted July 26, 2018 Hi junihh, Welcome to Affinity Forums Click the gradient colour well in the context toolbar right above the work area, select the colour stop you want to edit, click the Swatches tab on top of the pop-up you just opened and select the palette you want to use if necessary, then click/select the colour you want to apply to that node. You can also pick an existing gradient to apply to the (whole) gradient you are editing. junihh 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
