Not sure why my gradients panel in photoshop looks completely different than anyone elses. I wanted to use the rainbow gradient, but it doesn't seem to exist for me. Did photoshop get rid of it?

      Correct answer Semaphoric

      In the Gradient panel menu, select "Legacy Gradients".

      The best way to ask questions on the forum is not to jump on the end of a year old closed thread and start shouting.

      That aside, the gradient is "sticky"so should hold the last used gradient. If it does not on your system try:

      a. Resetting the tool

       

      or

       

      b. Resetting Preferences - Preferences > General >Reset Preferences on Quit then click OK and close and restart Photoshop
