7 From the General controls panel, choose a dab type from the Dab Type pop-up menu.
If the Source pop-up menu in the General controls panel is not available (appears gray), the selected
dab type does not support gradients. For example, the Line Airbrush, Projected, and Rendered dab
types support gradients.
8 From the Source pop-up menu in the General controls panel, choose one of the following options:
• Gradient — applies the current gradient across the width of the stroke
• Gradient Repeat — repeats the current gradient along the length of the stroke
9 Paint in the document window.
Painting with a gradient by using Gradient (left) and Gradient Repeat (right).
When painting with a gradient, only the Linear gradient type is supported.
Direction matters when you paint with a gradient. Corel Painter flips the gradient when you
change direction. To achieve a uniform effect, apply strokes in the same direction.
Replacing image colors with gradient colors
You can replace an image’s colors with those of a gradient. This effect applies gradient colors to the pixels
of the image, based on their luminance values. For more information, see “Using image luminance to create
texture” on page 651.
You can choose an image (left) and replace its
colors with the colors of a selected gradient (right).
