  3. Create Material > in material graph add a Linear gradient node
  4. Pull from UGradient Pin and plug into Base Color, Metallic, Specular, and Roughness > Compile
  5. Drag a cube into the level from the basic tab and apply material
  6. Apply material you just created and click view mode > Buffer Visualization > Overview

RESULT
The roughness visuals differ from the other maps despite same exact input. (See Screenshot)
