Hi, I am able to create a gradient mesh for an object and add a solid color to the slected mesh points. I am also able to create a standard object without a mesh grid and add a gradient color to it. Lets say the gradient color is brown on the left most side and black on the right with the middle indicator at 50% so the color blends from brown to black. Now when I try to add this swatch to the object with the gradient mesh , it does not take. I want to be able to add this swatch(the gradient color of brown to black) to specific mesh points. Can any one help me? Can anyone understand my question? Thanks Joe
