Use the location field.
Make two points the same value. That way there is no transition between points.

Add an additional colour stop. In your second screenshot, the right stop is actually two at exactly the same spot.

You will achieve a hard transition if you use these:

  • stop 1 at 0%: dark blue
  • stop 2 at 10%: dark blue
  • stop 3 at 10%: light blue
  • stop 4 at 100%: light blue
