Gradient Tool

渐变工具

Use this tool to paint gradients. As with the other paint tools, you will find various settings in the Active Tool manager.

使用此工具绘制渐变。与其他绘制工具一样,您可以在活动工具管理器中找到各种设置。

In the top left in the Active Tool manager, you will see a small preview of the gradient. Click on the preview to access the gradient presets. You can add your own gradients to these presets. To access a menu for the gradient presets, right-click (Windows) or Command-click (macOS) on a gradient preset.

在活动工具管理器的左上角,你会看到一个小的渐变预览。点击预览来访问渐变预设。你可以添加自己的渐变到这些预设置。若要访问渐变预设的菜单,请在渐变预设上右击(Windows)或命令单击(macOS)。

This is the same menu that is available for other presets such as the color presets. For details on this menu, see The Color Presets.

这是相同的菜单,可用于其他预设,如颜色预设。有关此菜单的详细信息,请参阅颜色预设。

Use

使用

To paint a gradient, click-drag in the 3D view or Texture view. The position where you click marks the start of the gradient and the position where you release the mouse button marks the end of the gradient. If you want to restrict the gradient, create a bitmap selection before you use the tool.

要绘制渐变,请在3D 视图或纹理视图中单击拖动。单击的位置标志着渐变的开始,释放鼠标按钮的位置标志着渐变的结束。如果要限制渐变,请在使用该工具之前创建位图选择。

Type

类型

Use Type to define how the Gradient Tool should apply the gradient colors. Here are examples of the available types:

使用 Type 来定义渐变工具应该如何应用渐变颜色:

Blend Mode

混合模式

Defines the blend mode for the gradient. For details on these modes, see Color Manager.

定义渐变的混合模式。有关这些模式的详细信息,请参阅颜色管理器。

Strength

力量

This slider defines the opacity of the gradient.

这个滑块定义了渐变的不透明度。

Add Preset

添加预置

You can use this button to save the gradient as a preset. Click the button and in the dialog that opens, enter a name for the preset and click OK. The gradient is now saved as a preset. To access this gradient and the other gradient presets, click on the gradient preview in the top left corner of the Active Tool manager.

您可以使用此按钮将渐变保存为预设值。单击按钮,在打开的对话框中,输入预设名称,然后单击确定。渐变现在保存为一个预设。要访问这个渐变和其他渐变预设,点击在活动工具管理器的左上角的渐变预览。

The Gradient

梯度

The Gradient is described here

这里描述了渐变

Noise Variation, Noise Scale

噪音变化、噪音比例

These settings enable you to add noise to the gradient.

这些设置使您能够向渐变添加噪音。

Noise Variation defines how harmonious the gradient is. Low values lead to smooth color transitions while high values generate bands of color.

噪声变化决定了梯度的和谐程度。低值会导致平滑的颜色转换,而高值会产生色带。

Noise Scale defines the number of disruptions applied to the gradient. A value of 0% means no disruptions, i.e., a smooth gradient. The higher you set the value, the more color bands you will see appear in the gradient.

噪声标度定义了应用于梯度的扰动数量。0% 的值意味着没有干扰,也就是说,没有平滑的梯度。您设置的值越高,您将在渐变中看到越多的颜色带。

Dithering

犹豫不决

Dithering is a process that adds a random pattern to colors to prevent color banding. Although dithering enhances image quality, it increases file size also. For web graphics in particular, you may want to disable dithering to reduce image file size.

抖动是一个过程,添加一个随机图案的颜色,以防止颜色带。虽然抖动增强了图像质量,它也增加了文件大小。特别是对于网络图形,您可能希望禁用抖动以减少图像文件大小。

Use Alpha

使用 Alpha

Use Alpha switches the alpha on or off for the gradient. Invert inverts the alpha. See Edit Alpha, Display Result, above.

使用阿尔法开关阿尔法或关闭的梯度。反转 alpha 值。参见上面的编辑 Alpha,显示结果。

Invertieren

Inverts the Gradient.

反转渐变。
