Creating custom fills

You can fill any object you draw with a bitmap. As you can create bitmaps of any objects in your document, you can create your own custom fills.

To create a custom fill

1. Draw the pattern you want to use to fill the object.

2. Create a bitmap of the objects. See Creating bitmaps from objects.

3. Select the object you want to fill.

4. Open the Bitmap Gallery and double-click on the new bitmap to apply it as a bitmap fill (see Applying bitmap fills).

Tip

You can create a variety of pattern fills using three and four color fills, see Creating simple fill patterns.
