And once you've grabbed the color, you can easily make it a global swatch to quickly and easily reuse across your site. That makes it super simple to pull the right color from a logo, hero photo, or illustration, without having to leave the app. Color and angle can be adjusted on the panel, but small details sometimes need to be adjusted by hand.Of course, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention our very own Webflow Chrome Extension, which activates an in-Webflow color picker to enable web designers to easily grab colors from within their own project.

When you click it, you swatch library pops up. In you swatches panel, you will find a “swatch library” drop down in the bottom left corner. To delete a point, just click the point and then drag it off the screen!Ĭhoosing preset gradients. I don’t know anyone who actually uses these, but here we go. If you want to duplicate a point of the same color, hold Shift+Alt then click and drag from the point you want to copy. Adding extra useless points will make the less smooth gradient. If you don’t need extra points, don’t add them.
To add a new point, click where you want on the slider to add a point! It will automatically become the color that is already there. This may mean that you need to open up all your panels by clicking the “open panels” button on top of your panels bar.Įyedropper color. If you want to choose a color from your document already, there is a special was to do it. THIS is very important otherwise you will RUIN your gradient! Click the color point you want to change (make sure it is outlined in black like in the image above), select the eyedropper tool, HOLD SHIFT, and then select the color you want.

The first thing you can change is making the gradient radial instead of linear! You can also change the angle of the gradient in the next area down. When you click the gradient panel, you will see the first panel image above. There is A LOT of information to cover for gradients! You can see the gradient icon is the same as the tool icon.
