Illustrator :: Apply Gradient Along Stroke

Jan 24, 2013

It seems that all these gradients-in-stroke options are only available for strokes that are aligned to the center of the path. I have tried to set inside and outside strokes, but i cannot for the life of me activate the right two options (even though they look like i can click on them).
 
Gradient-in-stroke options:

Illustrator :: Apply Gradient Across Stroke Not Working Now?

Jul 3, 2013

Updated Illustrator to CC and now my apply gradient to stroke is acting funny (also does it with apply along stroke). First i can't get it to show up unless I find a number it likes (start out with 1 pt, don't see a stoke so increase size 1 pt at a time up to 11 to see it) now the corners have gotten strange, They seem to be missing small patches. You can see in the image I am not doing anything fancy, it's type and then just to make sure it wasn't a font problem I tried just a rectangle. It seems to be worst with corner set to round joint.

Dec 26, 2013

It seems that gradient stroke only works as 'within stroke' for calligraphic brushes... and it's frustrating. I'm using CS6.

Illustrator Scripting :: Apply Current Fill Color To Stroke Then Adjust That Stroke Color's Build?

Apr 9, 2013

I'm trying to figure out a way to automate a simple, yet repetative process I do countless times a day. Ideally, I'd like to tie it to a keystroke to speed up my workflow.
 
I work on line art and colorways for footwear, so the way I'm coloring these shapes and strokes break apart the different materials and pieces of the shoe.
 
While coloring line art, I work with Pantone spot colors as fills for closed path objects. I then have to manually apply that same color to the stroke, set the stroke to 0.5px weight, convert that spot stroke color to CMYK, and add 15% to the K value.
 
I found some code in an older post for applying the actively selected object's fill color to the stroke, but I'm having but I'm having trouble with the next step of figuring out how to take that spot stroke color and convert it to a CMYK build that I can then add 15% black to. Is this something that's even possible? I've spent about an hour playing with the script and have only had luck matching the fill color or turning the stroke white.

Illustrator :: Gradient Stuck On Stroke CS6

Aug 7, 2012

I just dicovered the gradient stroke feature in illustrator CS6,  the problem now is I can't get out of it.  I am simply trying to apply a gradient within a shape, and it keeps only applying it to the stroke.  If I try to add a gradient to a path that doesn't have a stroke, it will automaticallly add a stroke.

Illustrator :: CC Why Cannot Add Gradient To Brush Stroke

Feb 15, 2014

Why I can’t add a gradient to a brush stroke. As soon as I select the drawn brush stroke and I try playing around with the gradient, the whole stroke goes black…This is driving me nuts. And the weird thing the gradient can be applied only to the basic brush type…not the one that I need unfortunately. I’m not sure why that is…I can only add colour to the brush stroke but no gradient sadly. Is there something I’m doing wrong or a setting which prevents this from happening?

I'm trying to select a portion of a path by using the direct selection tool and shift clicking on the anchor points. But when I click and drag the brush over onto the path, the brush stroke is applied to the entire path..... which I dont want to happen. I only want it applied to the section of the path.

Illustrator :: Stroke Gradient Stuck In Greyscale

Oct 25, 2012

I'm trying to apply an along stroke gradient to a stroke made with an artistic watercolor brush that comes with the program. Whenever I try to do this the gradient comes out greyscale. In the gradient window it will show as the colors I've chosen (ex. white -> orange), but when I draw the stroke it comes out greyscale regardless. If I draw the stroke with a different brush, like a regular round brush, it works perfectly fine. It seems to be doing this with all "artistic" brushes.
 
Is there a link there between artistic brushes and greyscale? Am I just doing something very wrong?

I'm running the trail version, does it have something to do with that?

Illustrator :: Change Direction Of Gradient Stroke?

Jun 20, 2013

Why is it that when I apply a gradient to a stroke I cannot use the gradient tool to change the direction or position of the gradient? I can make a fill and offset the path and then move that gradient (which is a very similar effect), but gradient tool does not work on a stroke. I am just baffled by the idea that I can put a gradient on a stroke but then only change it by using the gradient palette to change the angle and /or height /width...and that honestly dosen't work well.

Illustrator :: Apply One Gradient Across Multiple Live Paint Objects?

Aug 9, 2013

I need to apply a single gradient acros a number of live paint objects but am finding it annoyingly hard to find a way.  I know that normally, to apply a gradient across multiple objects, you would need to make them all into one compound path but does this apply to live paint groups in any way??  Can what i need to achieve actually be done?

Illustrator :: Create Transparent Text With Gradient Stroke?

Feb 18, 2014

I'm creating text that will be printed on a deep gray to black tshirt. 
 
I created text, added an offset path to it with a gradient, and a deep gray color fill on top, achieving the gradient stroke.  However, I'm not exactly sure what color the shirt itself will be, other than deep gray to black.  And I didn't want the deep gray/black fill in my text to appear and look awkward on the shirt.  Unless that is something I shouldn't be considered about.
 
To be safe, how would you create transparent text with a gradient stroke?  I'm using Illustrator CS5.

Illustrator :: Make Objects With Gradient Into Stroke Style For Frames

The thing is: it contains gradients. How do I get the frame to a stroke style so I can easily use it in Illustrator?

Photoshop :: Apply Gradient To Type

Oct 6, 2006

I hope ya'll will forgive me but I am drawing a blank on a simple matter. When I try to apply a gradient to the type on this, I have to rasterize the type. This applies the gradient to the entire image rather than just they type.

GIMP :: Apply Gradient To Image?

Dec 3, 2011

I have an image I am trying to create that I want to fade from right to left. In other words, I want the right side of the image to be full clarity, color, etc., and have it generally fade to almost gone by the time it gets to the left edge. Think of it as a gradient for an image.

Any way to do that with Gimp?

I found a blur tool. If I cannot do this with some kind of gradient tool, is there a "fade" tool?

GIMP :: Apply A Gradient To Text

Mar 21, 2013

I am having a problem with my Text to Path, specifically, I want to apply a gradient to my text, however when I make my path and select my text, the outline only appears over part of my text and thus I am not able to apply the gradient to the entire block.

Edit:
It seems like there is a character limit for this type of text, because I added some characters and it shrunk my selected area further.

Photoshop :: How To Apply Gradient To Front Of 3D Text

Aug 25, 2012

I'm trying to create some 3D text where the front (facing towards the user) side of the text has a gradient applied to it. I've tried applying the gradient before extruding it but as soon as you make it 3D the gradient dissapears. And there doesn't seem any options to apply a gradient in the inflation material layer. I'm sure this is possible though

Paint Shop Pro :: How To Apply Gradient Map To Brush

Jul 26, 2011

I was reading a tutorial on Photoshop about using a gradient map on a brush (the case in point was of drawing fire, with four colours, black, red yallow and white, making up the gradient map) such that you'd paint just once to get all four colours from each brush stroke. Here is an example. I was wondering how to do that in PSP X3 Ultimate. I am not new to PSP but I never used the more complicated brush features. Scripting doesn't scare me too much, if it comes to that, but I'd prefer a manual approach.

Photoshop :: Gradient Fill Wont Apply

Feb 20, 2004

Even starting with a clean slate 400x400 white background, my gradient tool wont fill! The fill bucket works fine, not the gradient. I've selected 5 or so different shades, everything, no luck. I'm in Normal blend mode, 100% opacity etc. I dont see why I cant apply a gradient! Dont know if this will help but when mousing over with the gradient tool, the cursor turns into a small "+" for some reason.....

Photoshop :: Problems Trying To Stroke A Gradient Bar.

Aug 19, 2004

I am following along a tut where you make a selection (navbar) with the rectangular marquee tool. Create a new layer and apply a gradient to the selection. Then you choose blending options and apply a stroke to the selection. However when I try to apply the stroke I have problems. Instead of just applying the stroke to the outside edge of the navbar it actually overlays the entire navbar and changes the colour of it. I have used the stroke before and never had this problem so Im not sure what I could be doing wrong. Im following the tut as it is written too.
