I'm having trouble understanding the gradientRadius attribute also, it would seem based on the documentation that a value of 50.0% would result in an evenly balanced radius but any % value I enter (from 0.1% to 99.9%) results in the android:endColor being the only visible color. Does anyone have any idea how the % values are supposed to work?
