nicecap Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Hi I'm working in Publisher - latest version. I'm just struggling to find a way to change a horizontal gradient for a fill to vertical. I created a rectangle and went to the Fill properties of that rectangle. Created a gradient by using the Fill box. Now I want to turn the gradient from horizontal (default) to vertical but I do not find any controls to turn the gradient - neither in the Fill properties box (like a circle controller) nor on the rectangle itself (like a control line). I found a circle controller on the fx Gradient overlay when I switch to Designer persona however now I have a horizontal AND a vertical gradient which was not the intention. Please give me advise how to simply turn the gradient fill in Publisher. Thanks Chris Quote
R C-R Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Select the Fill Tool & on the page you can drag the color stops (the circles on the gradient) to wherever you want, add new stops by clicking on the gradient line connecting stops, or moving the midpoints by dragging on them. carl123 1 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.5.7 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 All 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7
carl123 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 The Fill Tool also has a Rotate Gradient button on the context toolbar for "easy" 90 degree rotations R C-R 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.
