types. Conical fills
are useful for creating the illusion of a cone or other object lit from the side.

To apply a conical fill

1. Select the object (see Selecting objects).

2. Choose the Fill Tool.

3. Choose Conical from the Fill Type drop-down list on the Fill Tool Infobar
.

4. Drag from where you want the center of the fill in the direction of the light source.

A semicircular fill arrow
shows you the angle of the fill.

Tip

You can edit the position and angle of the fill by dragging the fill handles. See Changing conical fills for details.
