that was a perfect tutorial , thx! one question when I click twice in gradient I only see the gradient and not the gradient editor? where can I find de editor?
In the newest version you need to set the mode to Classic Gradient (top corner of options bar while gradient tool is active) to see what I see in this video.
Can I have a bit of help please? When double clicking that box at the start to edit the gradient, I don't have a popout or a page that allows me to edit the gradient. 2015 iMac Latest PhotoShop.
I got a halfway solution: you can modify all existing presets by double clicking the colored dots that appear when you place the gradient, and then save it as a new preset. This doesn't solve wanting to have more control however
Thank so much! Creating a gradient inside a shape was exactly what I was looking for to mimic the way I use gradients in Canva! No one else covers this! Question: when I try to turn the shape with the gradient around, the colour doesn't follow and stays at the bottom. Is there a way to modify the layer/shape so that the the colour stays put?
This moves me forward, but I remain confused as to how to negotiate between layers. When I am dealing with gradient PLUS the image that I am trying to effect, it gets more confusing. Not sure how to integrate the two and not simply cover the image/subject with a layer of colors that completely covers the image I am trying to treat.
Choose a foreground to transparent gradient and set the type to radial gradient. Add a layer mask to your image layer and set your foreground color to black. Now click and drag out around the edges of your image to mask out and soften the edges with the gradient. Another option is to use the same gradient, but press Command/control + I on the layer mask to invert it and hide your image completely. Then set the foreground color to white and click and drag over your image to add back your photo in gradient form! Hope that helps.

I hope this helps I've told my laptop to kill itself at least 10 times trying to use this fuckass tool that won't just give me the black to white gradient

At 1:39 he says if you double-click on the bar it'll open a color picker box... that does not happen when I double-click. Nothing happens or opens.
Same. It used to I think but not anymore for me
I found that I had to reset my tools to default and then it worked again
Excellent tutorial, Brendan makes a complicated process easy to learn. Thank you Thank you
Thank you, Brendan! Your tutorial was a great help to me.☺

Wow, that was the best. So clear and quick, yet not too quick. Thank you.

Me too! Did you get an answer?

double-clicking does not open the gradient editor. I am in photoshop 23
Excellent explanation and presentation of this important subject. Very good instructor. Thank you very much.

How would you use a radial gradient to soften the edges around a picture? Kind of like a cloud effect
I wonder just the same Duane!! Lets hope he can answer us both!
Choose a foreground to transparent gradient and set the type to radial gradient. Add a layer mask to your image layer and set your foreground color to black. Now click and drag out around the edges of your image to mask out and soften the edges with the gradient. Another option is to use the same gradient, but press Command/control + I on the layer mask to invert it and hide your image completely. Then set the foreground color to white and click and drag over your image to add back your photo in gradient form! Hope that helps.

@@BrendanWilliamsTutorials THank you very, but very much Brendan!!!!! Very useful indeed :) I wish you the best for this day.
Thanx!
👌👌
Another excellent tutorial. Us Brits have an issue with 'checked off' as this means OFF not ON. Always confusing!!!!
Oh really?? Now that sounds confusing to me! lol
The same thing I always wonder?
doubling doesn't open gradient editor for me either
TY
niCE BRO
didnt cover the transparency when making the gardient
does ivanka know you are making videos
I hope this helps I've told my laptop to kill itself at least 10 times trying to use this fuckass tool that won't just give me the black to white gradient
Way too fast. Assumes the end user has significant experience with PS.
OK but how do you add a gradient to just a shape?
god I hate Photoshop.
SLOW DOWN!! WTF? You speak TOO fast to follow!!
Thank you !!!
