I thought it was the same as well.........or try RTFM:-

To create or edit a gradient fill with the Color Mixer:

1
To apply a gradient fill to existing artwork, select an object or objects on the Stage.

2
If the Color Mixer is not visible, choose Window > Color Mixer.

3
To select a color mode display, choose RGB (the default setting) or HSB.

4
Select a gradient type from the Fill Type pop-up menu in the center of the Color Mixer:

Linear Gradient creates a gradient that shades from the starting point to the end point in a straight line.

Radial Gradient creates a gradient that shades from the starting point to the end point in a circular pattern.

The gradient definition bar appears in place of the color bar in the Color Mixer, with pointers below the bar indicating each color in the gradient.


5
Click the arrow in the lower right corner to expand the Color Mixer.

6
To change a color in the gradient, click one of the pointers below the gradient definition bar and click in the color space that appears directly below the gradient bar in the expanded Color Mixer. Drag the Brightness control to adjust the lightness of the color.

7
To add a pointer to the gradient, click on or below the gradient definition bar. Select a color for the new pointer as described in step 6.

8
To reposition a pointer on the gradient, drag the pointer along the gradient definition bar. Drag a pointer down and off of the gradient definition bar to remove it.

9
To save the gradient, click the triangle in the upper right corner of the Color Mixer and choose Add Swatch from the pop-up menu. The gradient is added to the Color Swatches panel for the current document.
