Illustrator :: Gradient Annotator Doesn't Work On Compound Path - CS6
May 21, 2012I'm trying to use the gradient annotator on a compound path. Moving the sliders and rotating the annotator works fine, but if I double click a slider and change the color the annotator disappears and the color of the slider stays the same. It works fine on non compound paths.

Dec 10, 2013I can't get the Gradient Annotator to show up. I select a shape w/a gradient, hit "G" nothing! I check under view and select "Show Gradient Annotator" nothing! I can use the gradient tool and pull a gradient and the annotator shows up during the action, but then dissappears when I'm done. Sometimes I can get it to show up if I back my view all the way out so I can see my entire artboard, but then when I zoomin closer it dissappears again. How can I get the Annotator to always show up when I use the tool. ( Mac-OS-10.8.5, Ai-CS 6)

Dec 25, 2012Why does the gradient annotator disappear when I drag it over an object. When I drag it it changes the gradient without giving me the chance to edit it. Just goes away. It used to work correctly but not now.

Jul 22, 2013How do I fix gradients within an object so that they remain where they are when the object is cut using the intersect paths tool, instead of the gradient fill being redistributed to the new object?
Also, how do I use the colour picker tool to pick a discrete colour within an object filled within a gradient, rather than it selecting the whole gradient swatch?
Illustrator :: How To Create A Blend Or Gradient That Doesn't Reach Edge Of Shape
Jan 29, 2013I am creating a shape that looks like a pill a rectangle with two circles on the ends, if you will. But it's all one shape. I want a gradient or blend (what exactly is the differnce?) that has a white middle and dark gray edges. The white goes along the pill horizontally but the dark gray is above and below this white "line" but the rounded edges of the pill shape are the dark gray. I'm using CS6.
View 3 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Gradient Editor Doesn't Load Gradient In CS6
Jul 9, 2012I've been experiencing problems with the Gradient editor since I got PS and the problem is that whenever I create a gradient through the gradient editor and then load it, it does load it and instead just duplicates the ones that already exist.
I save all gradients at:
C:UsersRHAppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS6PresetsGradients
However it does (mostly) work when I import pre-made (from web) Gradients.
I don't know why this happens but it also did the same thing when I had CS5.5!

View 1 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Gradient Editor Doesn't Like Me.
Dec 14, 2008I have PS CS4, and vista home premium. I am playing around with the Gradient Map, and everything is fine except for one thing. I know I must be doing something wrong but I can't put my finger on it. In the Editor, when I create a gradient with some transparency, the transparent bit never transfers itself to my image.
I have tried using the opacity stops to set opacity to zero, and the gradient bar is almost totally transparent, yet this has no effect whatsoever on either the image or the bar in the adjustments panel. There is no tick box for "transparency" such as there is in the gradient tool option bar so what am I doing wrong??

Illustrator :: Drag Global Color Swatches From Color Panel To Gradient Stops In Gradient Panel
Aug 28, 2012I have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Gradient Resolution In CS6?
Mar 19, 2013I've encountered a problem when using simple gradients in Illustrator CS6 v v16.0 on the Creative Cloud. My gradients are not smooth, you can see vertical/horizontal delineations in color when in linear mode, and circular delineations when in radial mode. This seemed strange to me since this is vector based. The attached picture is an example of this problem, it's 18x24 at 300dpi. It also persists when I export/save the image. This problem is also present in Photoshop.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: UI Of Gradient Gets Much Larger
May 6, 2013I've used the Gradient Tool many, many times and I just now noticed this. I don't know if it's supposed to do this or not but I don't ever remember this happening before. As you can see when I use the linear setting and I change the angle to anything other than 0, the UI of the gradient gets much larger. This makes it difficult to edit especially when the angle is set to something like 45 degrees. The sliders are almost unreachable.

View 3 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Illustrator Gradient Problem
Aug 26, 2005The logo is 2 objects which overlap at 2 points. The trick is that I want point A on object A to be on top of object B and point B on object B to be on top of object A. For the visual ones of us; make a Vulcan sign out of both hands, place the V's together so that the vertexes touch and then place both your palms flat. Your index and middle finger will be on top and also your pinky and ring finger of the other hand will be on top.
I can get this to work by making a 3rd layer (cutting the fingers off one hand) and placing them directly, but the objects are filled with a gradient and I cannot get the gradient of the hand to match correctly with the severed fingers. Compound paths will let me accomplish the correct gradient, but it screws up the layers.
Is there any way to have 2 objects on two different layers have the same (flowing, uninterupted) gradient? Unfortunately, a "close" color match isn't enough as when printed out, it's very obvious.
Illustrator :: Why Gradient Transparency Not Printing Right
Mar 25, 2013When printing a vector illustration in PDF format, my gradients that fade to 0% over a surface aren't coming out right. The gradient appears like a box with a hard edge, rather than fading away. It looks like this when viewing the file , but when printed I am getting this . (don't mind the color, it is a bad quality photo)
I am using an HP z5200 postscript printer.
