AFD & AFPh(Mac): Creating gradient swatch from example picture


Recommended Posts

I have an example picture of an existing gradient, I've saved it as  .Afphoto as well as  .Afdesign  file,  .png & . jpg 

I want to use this gradient in an illustration, so I want to create an Affinity gradient, but I keep ending up with

an Aff. Palette full of separate swatches of the colors used in the gradient.

Can anyone help me how to create a gradient swatch directly from this example picture ?

As always : all help enormously appreciated !

Use the Context Toolbar when you select the Gradient tool. It will open a dialog where you can choose your png or jpeg.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
