Gradient transparencies are represented by a path connecting a number of greyscale stops. The greyscale value of the stop represents the opacity/transparency value.
The following settings can be adjusted from the context toolbar:
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.
