Hi John,
Looking good. A way to select the objects affected by the selected
gradient would be useful. So that you can make massive gradient
re-assignments.
I've attached my suggestions--mostly just adding padding to beautify the
presentation, reduced the size of the gradients. Should be pretty clear
to tell based on looking at it.
Thank you John!
Sean
