I am fairly new to AI and still learning. Like the title stated, i would like to know how to fill the shape with gradient colors (or so i dont actually know how to call it) such as this. I tried with blend tool and it worked but i would like to know if there is any faster way to fill it directly rather than using blend tool. Thank in advance !

Basically, just read the first paragraph of the chosen answer in the duplicate link.– ScottJan 13, 2021 at 4:00

Ho much faster do you need to be? I mean even with a magic script there is still bookkeeping to inform how to do this. So yeah you can make a 30 - 60 second tasl a 10 second task. But how many times do you exactly need it. See Is is worth your time So clearly if you need this every week you can invest a hour on the task of making it faster.

Use the Gradient tool
Select the gradient tool and apply color swatches to it. You can choose a gradient pattern and as many color "steps" as you like.

Thank you but i am confused by gradient pattern. You mean add color manually on gradient bar ? if so it seems slower than using blend tool Jan 13, 2021 at 3:39

@BongBong Blend = 1 object for each blend step. Gradient = 1 object total– ScottJan 13, 2021 at 4:03
