Patterns
With Corel Painter, you can apply patterns to an image by filling or painting. In addition, you can customize
patterns by modifying sample patterns or by creating them from scratch.
All patterns, including both the sample and custom patterns, reside in libraries. You’ll find more libraries,
with additional materials, on the Corel website. For more information, see “Working with libraries” on page
56.
This section contains the following topics:

Applying pattern fills
Corel Painter lets you apply preset pattern fills to images. A pattern is a repeating design, and the smallest
unit of a pattern is known as a “tile.” When you fill an area with a pattern, the tile, which is rectangular, is
repeated across the selected area.
You can adjust the appearance of a pattern in various ways. For example, you can change the tile size, also
known as the scale, and offset tiles in a fill. When you offset the tiles, you adjust the horizontal or vertical
position of the first tile, relative to the top of the object, which affects the rest of the pattern fill.
