    Double click the Gradient Swatch tool to bring up the panel.

    Click once somewhere in the middle of the gradient bar and a new color stop is added. So far, this is great. I now have a frame with three colors. I chose Cyan, Yellow, and Magenta for each stop. Wonderful. Clicking and moving each of the diamond icons will create the effect I want.

    Here is the problem. How do I get rid of any extra color stops? No matter what I do, the extra color stop remains attached to the bar.

    Worse, if I click again under the gradient bar, new stops are added. Now way to remove them.

    I spent most of the day looking for the answer and finally found it in the Help file for InDesign.

    Remove an intermediate color from a gradient

    ?Select the intermediate color stop, and drag it to the edge of the panel.

    Drag the color stop to the bottom edge. Of course, when I dragged it to the left or right edge, it left the stop sitting over the left or right stop.
