Gradient Tool is blocked on Illustrator cs6 [closed]

by

My gradient tool on Illustrator cs6 is blocked.

It won’t let me change color, direction or anything related. The Gradient tool wont even let me click on the gradient, it shows the cursor with a blocked sign(circle and a diagonal line inside of it).

Seems very trivial a problem but I can’t get to fix it. Did google the issue but to no avail. Please do help.

Answer

Solved: Very very trivial, I just needed to click on the gradient window and toggle to fill mode, it had switched to stroke.

Also, googled why that happens and apparently if you have transparent gradient on your stroke, the gradient tool won’t let you modify the gradient.

One of those things that Adobe takes on and stops developing I think.

Thank you if you guys tried to solve it 😀
