# Gradient stops animated icon

Dragging the middle colour stop re-flows the gradient. Light: the stop is grabbed (it swells), dragged 4 units right along the ramp and stops dead; the colour boundary above follows a beat later, so the mid tone spreads, then both ease home as the stop is let go. Strong: a small tug left, a longer drag right that stops dead, and on release the stop snaps home past its place and settles in two decaying beats, the boundary a beat behind. The frame and the two end stops never move.
