it with red color.

portion of the previous red rectangle. Fill this new rectangle with
green color. Keep the top green rectangle selected.

the same menu that of Interactive Blend Tool (shown with green circle).
You need to press the menu to display the tool.

green rectangle and drag it to the bottom right corner.

the black rectangle at an end.

is opaque and the portion around the black rectangle is transparent
where you can see red rectangle through it.
