OCFR Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Rather than fill a shape with a solid color, I want to be able to fill it with a gradient color. How might I do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCFR Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 Thank you. That was very helpful. Do you know if a gradient can be applied to a thick curved line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 If you can select it, the tools can be applied to any area. Try using the magic wand and adjusting the tolerance (in the toolbar) until you can select just the area you need.
