Hi guys,

I found many gradient example on the net but they only show me to how to make gradient to a canvas, a box or even some ellipse ( display object ) , but what I really want is gradient color for text ( editable text ) ( apply gradient created for text ).

Is there a way out or a good explanation, guide, link, please some comments, thanks for reading.

Regards.s
