      Wonder why a Gradient gets an unintentional Opacity
      when I select Noise as Shape in the Gradient Panel.

      Is Noise as a Shape also possible
      without any additional Opacity ?

        @Subpath Click on the second icon in the row starting with the "Repeat" label.
        This will allow the control of opacity.
        Otherwise the opacity is generated by the noise.

          The second icon doesn't seem to do anything and neither
          does the third. Everything looks the same and stays the same.

          Also, the shape dropdown menu displays incorrect information.

          Here is a video

            @Subpath Send me a file with those gradients from the recording. I will try to figure out what is wrong.

                  @Subpath This is how it looks here, after set the gradient opacity mode to the second icon:

                  I will return to this on Windows later.

                    @VectorStyler , thanks

                    definitely looks different from mine

                    This problem is not urgent for me, it caught my eye
                    and I wanted to mention it

                    here my result, new try

                      @Subpath I opened a bug on this one, will try to have it fixed in the next build.

                      Did you try the Software mode for the Compute Engine settings in preferences?

                        Software is my standard setting.
                        Tried Software, Nvidia Cuda and OpenCL.

                        The noise gradient does not work with
                        Software and Nvidia Cuda.

                        Noise gradient work when I switch to OpenCL.
                        But VS was unusable with OpenCL, too much lags.

                        After I restarted the application it seems a bit better
                        but not really as smooth as the others.

                        Here my result in OpenCL.

                          @Subpath it should work with Software at least in all cases, so this might be a bug unrelated to the GPU.
