Gradient Fill
The Gradient Fill is an extension of the Paint
Bucket, or Fill Tool. It has
all of the features of the Fill Tool plus some neat
additions.
Under the Options button you'll find the Flood
Fill Options dialog box.
Fill Style allows you to choose from
- Solid
- Pattern
- Linear Gradient
- Rectangular Gradient
- Sunburst Gradient
- Radial Gradient
The Blend Mode drop down box gives you the full
array of Blend Mode options to choose from.
There are 17 different Blend Modes. The example
shows how changing the blend mode can affect the results
of the gradient fill. All gradient fills were done
with a blue foreground and red background color.
If you place your gradient fills on a layer above the
area you want to fill you can further manipulate their
appearance by adjusting the opacity and/or blend modes
of the layer.
