    Does anyone know how to create a material with a gradient in sketchup? Is it even possible or do I need to photoshop a texture with a gradient and then use that? Any advice would be helpful! Thanks!

        Yes, you will need to make the gradient material in another program like Photoshop. Well, I suppose there could be a way to do it if you really had to do it in su by making a series of strips, paint them each a sequential color in your gradient, then use SU's combine textures feature to combine them all into a single texture, which would appear to be a gradient. But I think that might be more trouble than its worth, and I'm not sure how great one could control the smoothness of the gradient.

          I recall that RickW also did some work on using a projected material that was balck-to-white hight-field gradient... http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=18024&p=149747&hilit=height#p149747
