Gradient

The <gradient> tag applies a pre-defined gradient preset to text.

For more information about creating gradient presets, see the documentation on Gradient Presets.

The closing </gradient> tag reverts to the TextMesh pro object's original color.

Example:

Apply<b>
<gradient="Yellow to Orange - Vertical">any
<gradient="Light to Dark Green - Vertical">gradient
<gradient="Blue to Purple - Vertical">preset</gradient>
</b>to your text

Successive gradient tags ended with a closing </gradient>

Note: When you apply a gradient using this tag, it's multiplied by the TextMesh Pro object's current vertex colors.

This <gradient="Light to Dark Green - Vertical">Light to Dark Green gradient</gradient> is tinted by the red vertex color

Applying a green gradient to red text

To apply the pure gradient to a selection of text, you can use a <color> tag to "reset" the color to white before applying the gradient.

This <color=#FFFFFFFF><gradient="Light to Dark Green - Vertical">Light to Dark Green gradient</gradient></color> is no longer tinted by the red vertex color
