Open the Color Editor. Does the drop down box have both a Start and End color? If so, edit them. But there is something incorrect in any case. Choose the fill tool, click the left-mouse button and hold it. Then drag it out across your image and release the mouse button. You'll see something like:
Take care, Mike
Sorry, I don't see a linear fill there, what I see is a red star that has had an ecllipse drawn over it and then both were selected and the subtract command was then used. I just verified this and then when I choose the filll tool, I got the same thing only with the node in a different place

Thanks the tries to reproduce the case, sorry maybe I should had start at the beginning that this Star is in Xara Designs gallery / Web templates / Graphics.
And yes exactly there is start and end color in Colour editor, finally found the tricky is that the handles are quite far away from the object itself, and that confused me. So the conclusion is that if in the Fill menus can be seen that Linear-Simple-Fade for the object, somewhere it is sure there just maybe beside the object.
All objects have for lack of a better word, an origin point that appears when the object is selected. It is a tiny square.

Ah okay thanks so these tiny squares are the same which was on my starting topic printscreen. And so that has nothing common with the Fill handlers
