I want to create a multicolor pinwheel effect for a background, with the arms of each shade radiating out from a hub and curved rather than straight. And I want the colors to blend into each other as in a gradient. A rainbow gradient is an obvious starting point.
Would anyone like to suggest a sequence of tools to arrive at this effect?
I will post this query elsewhere, but will not crosspost.

Create one narrow strip, unset its fill, then use the Tile clones to multiply it with zero x/y shift, some rotation, and some hue change to get the rainbow.
