To change the color of your gradient tool, you primarily use the color nodes provided in the software interface.
When you have a gradient tool or a gradient layer selected, you can modify the colors used in the gradient. The most direct way to change the colors is using the color nodes above the gradient bar. These nodes represent the different stops or points where the color changes within the gradient. Tapping or clicking on these nodes typically allows you to select a new color for that specific point in the gradient.
For more detailed control and settings related to the gradient's appearance, such as adding or removing nodes, adjusting their positions, or setting transparency, you can access Advanced settings. These additional options are usually found under the gradient bar in the Tool Property palette of your software.
Here's a summary of the process:
- Select the Gradient Tool or the layer with the gradient.
- Locate the gradient bar, often in the Tool Property palette.
- Interact with the color nodes above the gradient bar to change specific colors.
- Explore the "Advanced settings" under the gradient bar for more detailed control options.
By utilizing the color nodes and the advanced settings, you can fully customize the colors and transitions of your gradient tool for various creative effects.
