I understand how to alter the angle of a normal linear gradient, but I don’t understand how to set the angle of a linear gradient when creating it through the “New color style” panel. I want to set it in the style so that the angle is applied to all objects that get the style.

Can anyone explain how to do that, please?

 

Here I create the new style (I don’t see any way to set the angle)…

 

Here I apply the style…

 

Here I adjust the angle of the gradient…

…and as you can see it then breaks the connection to the style and the Fill is changed to “Linear” instead of “Example gradient”.

Ohh. If you create the style first there’s no way of setting the angle. Instead you have to create a fill for an object, give it the right colors and angle and so on, and then you save that as a style.
