: How to create a gradient shape that blurs on one side? How do I achieve the effect in the pictures below where the shape is defined on one side and the shape and gradient blur on the other?

One receipe for Photoshop. The result is a bitmap:


Have a simple shape with gradient fill on a black background:





Apply Filters > Blur > Radial Blur > Spin, put the spin center near one edge of the shape





Apply Filters > Blur > Radial Blur > Zoom





Make a selection with polygonal lasso tool and clean the edge. Note that the blur covers large area, have a wide selection





Duplicate the shape layer to have enough density
