Thanks for all the responses. I really wanted to use a graphic rather than
importing an image for all the reasons that Scott mentioned. Mark’s method
works of adding an alpha value to the ramp settings of the fillgradient
property of the graphic works perfectly so there is a (relatively) simple

The thing about using a graphic gradient (as opposed to an image) is the
graphic is infinitely more flexible:
- variable size (no loss of quality when resizing)
- variable colors
- variable transparency
As far as exporting goes, last I checked, I don’t think ink effects export
intact, even when
Would exporting a snapshot work well enough for your needs?

Personally I'd fake it:
I'd set up a gradient with one end being transparent in my graphics
weapon of choice (GIMP) and save it as a PNG image,
import it and overlay it on top of your content, then make sure you
group it with your content before you do an
export from group "JazzyGradient" to
Thanks Mark, I'll try that out.

Yes the color values you specify for gradients can have an alpha
component. For example:
0.5,255,0,0 -> at half way through the

I want to overlay a graphic with a vertical gradient that blends from
transparent to white to give the effect that the underlying content is fading
out as you move down the screen. I’m
