Gradient fills are resources. You can apply existing resources from the Attributes palette, and then map the resource to suit a specific object, if needed. Use the Resource Manager to create and apply resources; see Resource Manager.
Gradients can be applied to any type of 2D planar or screen object that accepts a fill, including walls (wall gradients only display in Top/Plan view), text boxes, worksheet backgrounds, and plug-in objects that include a 2D object.
