GDL for gradient fill

[Aussie John]

Im struggling to create a fill in GDL and the manual is rather vague. Any suggestions or examples on how to implement this? Thanks

Based on old intelligence, does that trick only work in PC environment.

No. It works in mac also.
You'll have better results by undocking your plan AND 2D script window, then holding-click for a second or two onto your gradient fill in your plan window and dragging it into the 2D script window.
By the way the gradient fill works in GDL but I couldn't find how to set the directions or sizes of the gradients... but didn't search a lot

That is all set in the POLY2_B command.
See the link John posted for the GDLCentre Forum - the conversation was expanded on over there.
