Hello,

 

When trying to export this graphic, the gradient takes up much more space than intended. Looking for any help with what I am doing wrong or if this is a bug. Thanks!

    I converted the gradient to a smart object and it fixed all exports.

      Hey @Hayden31710870z0yx. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll need more specific info to help you figure this out.

       

      What version of Photoshop & macOS are you working on? How is the document built? The screenshots suggest adding a gradient layer on top of your image & resize it to fit.

       

      As a test, I drew the black gradient on a random image & then selected the mask of the gradient to show/hide the rest of the gradient layer. This is how my test file looks & the export screen works as expected when matched to the setting you're working on.

       

       

      Please test this at your end or share the process you're working on.

      For a temporary workaround, you can go to Photoshop > Settings > Export > Use legacy 'Export as' & restart Photoshop.

       

      Check if that helps. Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
