This page provides information on the V-Ray Gradient Texture.
Overview
Gradient is a texture map that can easily create and edit gradients useful in many different situations.
Any texture can be replaced via the Replace With New Texture (
) button, which activates when you select the texture to be replaced. If the texture is an instance, all copies are changed as well.
Parameters
Preset – Applies a gradient preset. When the gradient is manually changed, the Custom preset is automatically selected.
Black/White
Red/ Green/ Blue
Spectrum
Custom
Type – Controls the direction and shape of the gradient ramp. Changing the Type does not affect the color and position of the control points.
V – A gradient changing along the V direction.
U – A gradient changing along the U direction.
Diagonal – A gradient with a diagonal transition.
Radial – A gradient with a radial transition.
Circular – A gradient with a circular transition.
Box – A gradient with a box radial transition.
UV – A gradient changing along both U and V directions.
Four Corner – A gradient that transitions linearly between colors assigned to each corner.
Tartan – Creates a gradient with a plaid pattern.
Interpolation – Changes the color interpolation method. Changing the option changes the color transition curve between the control points.
None – Disables the transition.
Linear – Values are linearly interpolated in RGB color space.
Exponential Up – Values are exponentially interpolated from left to right, each color dominating the area between it and the next one.
Exponential Down – Values are exponentially interpolated from right to left, each color dominating the area between it and the previous one.
Smooth – Values are interpolated along a bell curve, each color dominating the region around it before blending to the next color
Bump – Values are interpolated along a sin curve, based on luminosity values.
Spike – Each color dominates only its immediate area, falling off shortly after.
Left-click on the Gradient bar to add additional color points. Right-click on any color point to remove it.
Color – The color of the currently selected control point.
Position – The float position of the currently selected control point.
Noise
Amount – Controls the strength of the noise texture distortion.
Frequency – Controls the noise frequency. Smaller values make the noise pattern appear bigger and vice versa.
