Hi Miles.
I'm afraid the technical details of bit-depths and monitor hardware are beyond
me.
However, when playing with inkscape I can create gradients that don't have
bands.
Also, when I'm viewing other peoples artwork online I don't get the bands.
I'm guessing that this might mean that the
You might want to check the color depth of your document. If it's
indexed color then the document may not be able to create smooth
gradients because their aren't enough colors in the pallet. You can tell
if this is the problem (on 2.6.8) by going through the menus to
image-mode-... If

Also, are you sure your monitor is not the one giving you some extra
banding? Some are sold as 24 bit color, but are 18 plus tricks.
Probably _most_ monitors sold these days are 18 plus tricks
(though the tricks these days seem to be a lot better
I think your problem may be more to do with your computer display settings.
Mines is on 32 bit - and I get no banding at all.

Hey guys.
I created an A4 sized canvas and made a black background layer.
On a new layer I wanted to create a large lighting effect that would use most
of the area of the canvas:
new transparent layer - select fg to transparent radial gradient...
But I got banding.
I selected dithering, and

Say you draw a monochrome gradient from back to white along 2560 pixels.
You only have 256 different colors, thus you get bands 10 pixels wide.
And dithering does not have a real effect in such a case.
I'm in RGB mode. The image is 2480px wide and 2794px high.
Is there a way that I can create a

I'd like to know how this happends and how I can reduce or get rid of these

Are you sure it's not your monitor? I have a Dell LCD monitor that has

Eek, I send this to Paul H. only instead of the list, resending.
Apologies for the noise Paul.
