Iused to use photoshop 5.5. Now I use version 6. It's been a long time since I used the gradient tool, and now I come to use it in version 6, I don,t know how to create my own gradients...How do you edit the gradient in version 6? In version 5.5 all you had to do was double click the gradient icon and a nice lovely window would pop up and you could arrange all the colours and spacing to taste.. Any ideas

Hmmm...yet another user who mysteriously has no manual to refer to...

perv, or should i call pixel? In ver6 Adobe did away with a lot of the dialog box type settings and replaced them with "option" bar settings (a much better feature). The options change based on the type of tool selected.

To create your own gradient;
1 select the tool
2 click on the small arrow in the gradient selected in the option bar
3 click on the "arrow" form the dropdown menu
4 choose New Gradient...

or click directly on the "gradient" in the option bar to call up the editor directly. Make sure you save your gradient as a "new" one or you'll have modified the existing selected one.

have a blast

I withdraw the statement.
