Allow gradient swatches to be added to CC library
It's great to have colors in the cc library but why can't those colors be gradients too? Please allow us to add gradient swatches to the cc library. Thanks

I would really love this feature! I do a lot of work across InDesign & Illustrator and use CC Libraries to streamline.... would be great to be able to add gradients!!!

Yes, this is so dated. Adobe, please move this function forward in your next update already. Instead of tweaking other tools to make it more basic and lessen efficiency. PLEASE create this for efficiency. Thank you.

It's ridiculous that this hasn't already been implemented. Either make sure all Creative Cloud applications have the same gradient customization tools or allow gradient swatches to be added to the CC library so you can share them across applications.

私も賛成です。是非お願いします。グラデーションには円形や線形のようなタイプと、角度の設定もありますね。これも記憶して、その通りに適用するか、グラデーションの配色だけを活用するかを選べると便利です。

Upvote for gradients to be added to the CC library. If you add an object with a gradient to the library, you can't use it as a swatch either.

C'mon Adobe!
Indesign gradient system is awful, do something at least about cc library! -

For me, would be great to save gradients to the custom swatches i made!

I'm not going through 5 pages of comments so apologies if this has already been mentioned but libraries also need to support Freeform gradients. While you're at it Adobe, please update the swatch panel so that these can also be saved there!
I know you can save artwork to the library with gradients applied and then uncouple the colour from the shape once you Alt-drag it back into a file from the CC Library, but hacks are hacks and this really should just work properly.

Go to swatches > click the 3 lines icon (upper right) > Choose "Open Swatch Library" from the dropdown menu > there, you'll see all the color libraries

On the topic of gradients, any tools tips to recreate the appearance of a gradient in AI to PS or vice versa, e.g if you create a logo in AI with a gradient and want to use it in PS

I have just tried this several times and spent two days trying to figure out how to do this. I even contacted adobe about this and their support said it cannot be done. Out of frustration i kept trying many things. I decided to close out both indesign and illustrator. Created new files etc. Still no avail. I then copied the gradient object from illustrator and went into indesign and selected edit menu then "paste into place". it worked!

So obviously needed. Grads should be allowed in folders, libraries and exports. Why in 2019 are they treated like 4th class citizens! Grads are lovely, essential beings. Let's give 'em some love. :-)

You can work around it with cloud libraries: create a rectangle, fill it with your gradient and add that to your library elements. Not ideal, but when in a pinch...

Hey guys - are there any workarounds or possibilities to add these gradients to the libraries... This an really annoying "non-feature" :/ I spent over 40mins about trying it...
