Gradient (.grd) file support

[Mr420]

Possible .grd support in the future? Ability to import and export gradient files would be super useful.

Hi @Mr420, I agree with the idea of gradient import and export!

However, I’d be much happier with a text-based openly documented gradient format, such as a CSS gradient, rather than a binary (Adobe) format such as .grd.
Easy to understand, modify, and cross-platform, and easy to write a converter for, if needed.

For example:

• Here is a CSS gradient editor
• Here’s another
• And another

Alternatively, the SVG gradient would also be good.

• This tool exports SVG gradients as well as CSS.
• So does this one.

Alternatively, something like the Gimp .ggr format - it’s ugly, but workable.
