World Space Radial Gradient by Jens Kafitz |
The World Space Radial Gradient will create a 3d radial gradient in around a defined point in your scene.
Video The process of defining the pivot in 3D Space is the same as it is used for the 'Cylindrical Projection' Node:

Ensure that the Node sits above any LUT applying Adjustment Node such as sRGBtoLinar.
You can move the World Space Radial Gradient Node back under it once you completed this basic orientation step-by-step.
This will show the object position X/Y/Z converted to an RGB Value.
Since these positional values are likely over 1.0, your object will go most likely completely white.
If the icon displays 'LDR' click on it to switch to 'HDR'. This ensures that values above 1.0
can be sampled in the viewport.
of your projection
'Display Object Position as Color Value' checkbox. You are now free to move the Gradient Node anywhere you want in the
Layerstack (including below a LUT Node such as sRGBtoLinear)
The 'Manifold' connection can be used to feed in a coordinate system for the evaluation of the gradient.
Possible node connections are for example the 'Manifold 3D', 'Manifold UV', 'UV', 'Position' etc.

The Gradient Profile
Shows your objects position values (X,Y,Z) as RGB Values so they can be sampled with the Pixel Analyzer Tool.
Refer to How to position the 'Sphere' in 3D Space for more details.

Will apply a scale along X,Y or Z of your radial gradient.
