Changing the grain of a fractal fill

You can fill objects with Fractal Cloud fills or Fractal Plasma fills to give them a random pattern. Changing the grain lets you make the fractal appear smooth and flowing or grainy.

To change the grain of a fractal fill

1. Select the fractal filled object (see Selecting objects).

2. Choose the Fill Tool.

3. Click away from the fill handles to ensure none is selected.

4. Type a grain value into the Grain field on the Fill Tool Infobar (from 0 to 16,000).

5. Press RETURN.

Tips

If there is a selected fill handle, Grain shows the color applied to the handle.

Low values give a smooth, flowing pattern. High values give a grainy pattern.
