Just reposting this v1 feature request in the v2 feedback forum.
Would be good to know if implementing this feature is even possible, I assume the inner software architecture doesn't allow it (only bitmaps) and it might only be possible with a hacky and unstable implementation, but if you can confirm it at least we can close the question with a definite answer.
Here's the v1 thread:

All of the design packages, including free and open source ones I tried have this feature, except AD.
For example, this is like buying a car and discovering it doesn't have a mirror in the rearview, and when you ask for it, be told that you can take a photograph from the vantage point of the rearview, print it, cut it in the shape of the rearview and fit it in, and that should do the trick. Except it doesn't, because you need it not for decor, but for driving. Or also be told that you can buy another car that has a working rearview in it and use that car instead when you want to check, drive for a bit, then go back to your first car to drive it too so they are in sync. And finally, be told that It's not the car dealer's fault that you didn't check one by one for all of the hundreds of features and pieces that any car is supposed to have before you bought it.
I don't know about you, but if I found a car dealer like that, I'd think twice about buying anything else from him again.

Ok, bad analogy or wrong word, english is not my first language. The correct analogy is not really the point, the 'having a basic feature missing' is,  but I'll bite. Let's change it to a car that doesn't have a parking brake, or a glove compartment, or brake lights, or a trunk or whatever basic feature of a car you can think of.

Sorry David P I posted the wrong link at the beginning of my post about the technique - here is the link that features a couple of screen captures which explain how to setup the data merge cells and the work around for drawing overlaps: 
I realised in the above links I have guides switched off which makes it a little harder to illustrate the technique, so I've just done another grab

Hi all,
I'm considering buying Designer but one thing that I can't find is if there is a way to fill an object using vector or patterns. I only find gradients and bitmap.
I know we can duplicate an object to create hand made pattern but I can't then edit the repetitions like if is a bitmap fill.
Cheers,
Juan

+1 : Vector patterns are way more versatile than bitmap based ones, and implementing them would also improve compatibility SVG.
