Final answer:

To fill a shape with a gradient, first apply a gradient to the shape, then use the gradient slider to set stops, specify exact values for those stops, and finally, choose the shape and apply the fill option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To fill a shape with a gradient, you can follow these general steps which are commonly applicable to many graphic design software and applications:

  • Apply a gradient to the shape by selecting the shape and looking for a gradient fill option in your software. This is typically found in the properties or style panel.
  • Use the Gradient slider to set the stops. Stops are the points along the gradient where you can specify a color. Moving them adjusts how the gradient changes from one color to another.
  • Set the stops on the Gradient slider to a specific value if you're aiming for precise color transitions at determined positions within the gradient.
  • Choose the shape and click on the Fill option to actually apply the gradient you've configured to the shape.
