Hi there,
Wanted to create my own gradient creation tool as I find the gradient component a bit clunky, and this is what I came up with.
Instead of the Gradient component interface, I manually input the colours that I want to use, and then assign it to a given surface.
-
As you can see on the right, the gradient is repeated twice, which isn’t the end of the world but I’d like to know how to fix that. I presume it has something to do with the range, but I can’t figure out how to fix this. Tried changing the V input value, but this doesn’t solve the problem (>1 gives more divisions, and <1 doesn’t work)
-
This definition is limited to creating gradients for input curves that are rectilinear, and with no more than 4 sides. How would one modify this definition to be able to accept more complex shapes (i.e. more than 4 sides, or organic)? One technique I tried was to create a bounding box around it, apply the gradient to that instead, but then I couldn’t figure out how to trim the gradient fill outside of the input shape area . Any ideas?
-
Is there a way to be able to rotate the direction of the gradient?
To give you an idea of what I’m working towards, an artwork by Amber Vittoria. Seen here: different shapes each with different coloured gradients, and the direction of the gradients vary.
