Hi,

I have an A3 portrait page and I want to have a line across the vertical diagonal middle and then each of those triangle shapes to have their own linear gradient fill colours.

The idea is that each side will have a different message but on the same sheet.

These will be the background colours.

Can anyone help me please?

Easiest answer would be to draw it as two triangles.

a) Start by adding a page frame (Layout : Page : Add Page Frame).

b) Make sure View : Snap to Objects is on.

c) With the Freehand Tool, click near the top left corner, click twice near the top right corner, twice near the bottom left corner and once at top left. You now have a triangle.

d) Press F11 to add the fountain fill.

e) Repeat c) and d) for the other triangle.
