Just spent an hour digging for that!
Possibly that came in later versions of Illustrator ????
Love, Richmond.

It’s not the same as Photoshop, but you can create a transparent gradient in
older versions of Illustrator. You just need an opacity mask to make this work
in Illustrator CS2, CS4 onward is much easier. I’m not too sure how this will
relate to the SVG though.
Create a graphic shape and fill with the your desired colour, then on top of
that create a second graphic (can be a square with the same outer dimensions as
the first graphic).
Fill the second graphic with a black-to-white gradient fill (black will become
the transparent part and white will be opaque).
Now select both objects, open the Transparency Palette, click on the twist arrow and
choose "Make Opacity Mask”.
Your first graphic shape should now have a transparent gradient.
Have fun.
Ha, Ha, Ha: I'd rather not frankly, when Inkscape does it so easily.
Thanks for the method, anyway!
Richmond.
Paul
