Gradient Editor doesn't load Gradient in Photoshop CS6

Jul 9, 2012 8:15 PM

Hi,

 

I've been experiencing problems with the Gradient editor since I got PS and the problem is that whenever I create a gradient through the gradient editor and then load it, it does load it and instead just duplicates the ones that already exist.

 

I save all gradients at:

 

C:\Users\RH\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets\Gradients

 

However it does (mostly) work when I import pre-made (from web) Gradients.

 

I don't know why this happens but it also did the same thing when I had CS5.5!

 

So could anyone tell me what the issue might be?

 

Thanks in advance.

    How are you saving the gradients?

     

    Using the preset manager works quite well for saving gradients.

    Yeah, I've used preset manager for saving gradients but when I load them, then again the same thing.

     

    Please could you check what the prob is.

    That sounds like you're saving ALL the gradients, then appending what you load to the existing gradients -- so you get the defaults plus what you just created.

     

    And it sounds like you need to read up on how presets work in Photoshop.
