I thought that one generated gradients algorithmically itself, as we
used to do in the pre-Rev 3.0 world. Now that Rev has all those many
properties for the new built-in fillGradient (type, rsmp, from, via, to,
quality, repeat, mirror, wrap), I dare say the engine does more than
even Mr. Rossi could do. No offense to Scott, but Mark Waddingham's put
in a strikingly complete set of options, enough to satisfy the pickiest
gradient designer. :)
I was reading about those properties this evening, thinking maybe I'd
make a GUI for setting them, but it just seemed to likely that someone
else had already do it, so I thought I'd check in here.
