Grad

The Grad node generates a gradient between four corners of different colors. The count
order of the corners is: Corner 1 in the lower-left corner, corner 2 in the lower-right
corner, and so on. For a simple gradient ramp, use the Ramp node. For a radial gradient,
use the RGrad node.

The color, alpha channel value, and Z channel value at the lower-left corner. The color
defaults to 100 percent red.
