Although you can use the Fill Tool to apply solid colours to an object's fill or stroke, its true power lies in its ability to apply and modify gradients.
The following settings can be adjusted from the context toolbar:
Apply to Fill—When enabled, the gradient is applied to the object's fill.
Apply to Stroke—When enabled, the gradient is applied to the object's stroke.
Rotate—rotates the applied gradient by 90°.
Reverse—the end stops swap places. (All intermediate stops are also repositioned accordingly.)
Aspect—if this option is off (default), the end stops can be resized separately which changes aspect ratio. When selected, the end stops are locked to keep the aspect ratio (i.e. changing one will automatically update the other). This setting affects only Elliptical and Bitmap fills.
