Using Tile Fills

Tile fills are resources; you can select them from a library in the Attributes palette, or you can create or import custom resources and apply them from the Resource Browser (see Accessing Existing Resources). They can also be deleted and/or replaced from the Resource Browser (Deleting or Replacing Resources).

There are two ways to customize the fill to suit the object to which it is applied; use either the Fill Tile Settings button in the Attributes palette, or use the Attribute Mapping tool to move, rotate, or scale the tile.

Tile fills can be applied to any type of 2D planar or screen object that accepts a fill, including walls (wall tiles only display in Top/Plan view), text boxes, worksheet backgrounds, and plug-in objects that include a 2D object.
