Gradient editor and metal colours

[Schraven Robert]

Via the gradient editor you can choose metal colours. However the choice is limited to just 6 colours.
Is that all or can I make more myself, maybe by using colour swatches?

Yor can get some more here <http://share.studio.adobe.com/axBrowseSubmit.asp?t=13>

I assume you can make some more, or play with the premade ones.

Shraven, with any of the gradient options:

Click directly onto colored gradient bar at the top of the options pop up. Click on the little colored boxes just below the gradient....color swatches then appear so you can chose your color. you can move it around and change opacity with the boxes on top. Also, place your cursor on the edge of one of the little colored boxes below until you see a finger and then you can drag out another box and fill it using the same procedure. The options are there to chose angles etc... there are no limits with the gradient tool. You can even make perfect stripes by toggling the opacity midpoint ( little triangles on top ). It's always best to use the adjustment layer gradient option.

Paul and jodi,

Thank you both for the information.
I will visit the website and make some home made ones as well.
