The answer on how to apply colors starts from 6:20, in case you are wondering

Much like InDesign's gradient tool and methodology. This tutorial gave me dementia. Colour control is fiddly, as demonstrated by this tutorial in which the tutor struggles constantly with said controls. But most demented is the inability to change colours on the fly, you have to create colour swatches first, then edit them afterwards, for every colour in the gradient. Bonkers.

i cannot believe how ass-backwards adobe makes their programs. Click and drag for color is only in indesign. thanks for the tut man

[iraalicreatives]

oh my god. It's so weird that we have to drag our colours!! :< Why can't make most of their program the same?? But thank you so much for this!

This drag and drop feature from swatches to the gradient panel is an absolute joke. We're not talking about niche functionality here. We're talking about a fundamental way of adding colour to a document in a design application. Do Adobe do any product testing before launching??? Or maybe checking in with other application teams to determine universal application behaviours so we don't have to learn 5 different ways of doing the same bloody thing depending on what app we're in????!!!! Drives me mental. And what an earth is the drag down feature about to delete a colour point on the Where the f**k has that come from???? Who an earth would intuitively know to do that???? Why is there not just a minus sign???? The UI team on these apps should be shot

It could all be so easy xD I was thinking - how on earth did Adobe manage to make this process so complicated that an 11-minute video is needed to explain it - but they managed!
