      @Devil-Dinosaur yes, can be replicated here, must be a recent regression. Will get fixed ASAP.

        Thank you.
        If it can help I noticed that, after trying to apply the gradient mesh, the object turns into an "empty object" in the layer panel. But it's the only trace of it.
        Edit 1 : Mesh gradient works on 1.1.020. But... the following shapes I created after applying mesh gradient to the first one have a gradient mesh by default. (?)

        Edit 2 : I still have the problem with the gradient panel and options.
        Clicking the preview window to gain access to the presets make a crash. On the presets, conical makes freeze and crash, as well as some as the presets shapes. I haven't tried them all (it's a long list and I have to restart every time...), but the conclusion is : some work, some don't.

          Hi Everyone,
          This time I will try to sound less like a burden... 😅
          I also had problems with some of the blur effects (freeze then crash). So I changed the performance settings in the preferences from open CL open GL to software (x2) and... conical gradient works, gradient presets seem to work, blur effects work. So I guess it may have something to do with my graphic card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M). Unfortunately, I cannot test on other card/computers. But there may be something to dig there... 🤔

            Are you using VS on Windows or Mac? It seems that it could be some GPU config issue with the crashes.

            About the gradients:

            I tried to replicate the shape drawing after mesh gradient issue. At least in my case, after creating mesh gradients, new shapes are drawn with a solid fill.

            As for the gradient crashes: try various options in the Preferences -> Performance -> Compute Engine.

              @Devil-Dinosaur No such thing as burden 🙂

              Great! this seems to identify the issue.
              If you use Windows (?), you should also have the option for CUDA in the compute list.

              And: some OpenCL drivers may have issues, try to check if there is a driver update for the specific GPU.

                @Devil-Dinosaur You could include your computer's configuration in your signature (click your forum's icon in the upper right corner and choose 'Edit Profile'), so it's easier to figure out next time. 👍

                  Sorry! I forgot that.

                    I checked online and it seems that "metal" should be used instead of Open CL which cannot be upgraded on Mac. I set it to metal in preferences->performance and it works. ☺

                    I add my signature.

                      Mesh gradient editor doesn't seem to work. clicking over line doesn't add horizontal or vertical line.

                        @Jayanta-Das When double clicking inside the mesh (but not on a line), it should add a new mesh node. Is that working?
                        I tested it and that part is working here.
                        Clicking on a line (edge) of the mesh is not working currently.
                        I will try to fix this ASAP.

                          @vectoradmin yes clicking inside is working, but not on line.

                              Doesnt work also on Win.
                              Only not on Line.
                              Double click inside the mesh work.
