Apply a gradient to an object instead of the entire canvas?
- Create the region you want to fill with a gradient, and the gradient layer, if you haven't already.
- Make sure that the gradient layer is above the region layer in the Layers Dialog.
- Select both layers, right click, and select Encapsulate.
- Expand the new Inline Canvas layer if it's not already, and select your gradient layer.
- In the Params Dialog select the Blend Method parameter, and choose Onto from the drop-down menu.
The gradient will clip to the visible area of the region below it inside the Inline Canvas. (and any other layers in that section).
