linearGradient in stroke?

[walkingfearless]

Hi guys!
I have a noob question, but I've been going through the documentation and can't find a way to apply a linearGradient to a stroke.
Is it possible?

If it is, can I do that gradient just fade to 0% alpha?

Thanks!

you cannot apply any fill (like fe linearGradient) on a stroke... If possible try to expand the stroke...

Also alpha values in gradients are ignored.

I see...
I guess I'll have to take a different approach.
Thanks @frederik !
