By default a {{l|Gradient_Tool|gradient layer}} cover the whole canvas. This short tutorial shows you how to cover an object with the gradient.

1. Create the region you want to fill with a gradient.

2. Create the gradient layer. As you can see it fills the canvas completely.

3. Select all layers, right click, and select {{l|Encapsulate}}. Make sure the gradient is above the shapes it should fill.

4. Expand the new {{l|Paste Canvas|Inline Canvas}} layer if it's not already, and select your gradient layer. 
5. In the {{l|Params Panel}} select the {{l|Blend Method}} parameter, and choose {{l|Blend Method#Onto|Onto}} from the drop-down menu.

The gradient will clip to the visible area of the region below it inside the {{l|Paste Canvas|Inline Canvas}}. (and any other layers in that section).
