I start a new blank CMYK document with a white background.
I then pick my colors in the, Set foreground color / Set background color icons/pallet. I then click on the Gradient tool. Then I click in the middle top of my blank document and drag it down to the bottom of the document which then creates my gradient colors. Ok, now last week when I did this I could pick and background / foreground color and then the gradient tool and it would do the colors I picked. Now when I try that it has like a default color and color style. How the heck do I change it back ? I'm sure I clicked or did something that I'm not seeing here.
hum! choose your colors background and foreground color after click on the gradient tool and after click on edit gradient and choose your color in the preset gradient.
