Hi Cordex.

Are you trying to do this in Photoshop CC?

If so, I need to move your post to the Photoshop forum, so please let me know.

Hi

Click on the rectangle shape tool :

At the top of the screen click on fill and then set it to gradient

Click on the little squares - the bottom squares (circled in purple)  set the color and the top squares (circled in red) the opacity

Go to the canvas and click and drag to draw the rectangle

You can alter the gradient by highlighting the shape layer in the layers panel then  clicking on the gradient in the properties panel

Just realised you said left to right

So with the shape layer highlighted, go to the properties panel, click on the gradient and rotate it
