strange gradient behavior

[JDM24]

Are you adding the gradient to a black layer?

[JDM24]

No layer was empty before i add gradient

Could you please create a Gradient Layer and post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible? 

[JDM24]

you welcom

i have background... i suppose background should be visible ? yes?

i have two layers background and gradient .. gradient form 100% opacity to 0% opacity

shouldn't see background there? where opacuty is 0%

[c.pfaffenbichler]

Please create a Gradient Layer (Layer > New Fill Layer > Gradient). 

If you have to use the Gradient Tool please post a meaniingful screenshot so we can see the Tool’s settings in the Options Bar, like the Blend Mode.

In other words was your Layer 1 black to begin with or was it an empty layer. If it was empty the black area in the layer you show should be revealing the content in the backgroumd layer. Layer 1 empty

Layer 1 Black

Where does the black in your image come from. The gradient editor you captured show no black in the gradient the only color shown is white.

Have you reset your preferences? Also uncheck, "Use Legacy Compositing' in the preferences.
