Gradients
A gradient is a type of fill that displays a smooth progression of two or more colors and
adds the illusion of depth to an image. Gradient fills are also known as blends or
fountain fills. Corel Painter offers a wide selection of preset gradients, but you can also
create gradients.

Applying gradients
Corel Painter allows you to apply a gradient to an image by filling an area, such as the
canvas, a selection, layer, or channel. For more information, see “Selections and
Transformations” on page 543, “Layers” on page 479, and “Alpha Channels” on
page 529.
When applying a gradient as a fill, you can apply one of four gradient types: linear,
radial, circular, and spiral.
