paint with color from gradient

I used to know how to paint with color from gradient. Various help sites say hoose the dynamics Color From Gradient, but I haven't been able to find that option. How can I use airbrush with Color from Gradient? Thanks,

​When the airbrush tool is selected, look in its options in the bottom part of the window. Click the icon on the left of "Dynamics" to open the menu of available dynamics.​

paint with color from gradient

But there is nothing in the matrix that says says Color from Gradient. The closest thing I can find is Random color. In gimp 2.6 there is a tick-box for Color from Gradient and it makes a graceful predictable gradual flow from one color to another. Can we still do that, in 2.8?
Thank you,

Hmmm, on my 2.8 version it's item #5 in the drop-down. In the matrix, it would be row 4 (color) and column 7 (fade).

Are you seeing something different?

ok thanks I finally found that. Playing with the fade length helps, but it still doesn't behave like "Color from Gradient" in 2.6. What should be in the text box to the right of the icon? I sit here with gimp 2.8 on my desktop and 2.6 on my laptop, same two colors, and I can't get 2.8 to make a smooth gradual transition like 2.6 does. I'm trying different settings in the text box to the right of the icon. "Fade tapering" seems to get the closest.
