Thank you. It works for filling vector shapes yes. But it's not a full solution. For filling sections of a pixel layer with repeat patterns that I've drawn it doesn't work. For eg if adding a repeat pattern to sections of a scanned ink drawing for texture or detail. I guess I can go through and save all my pattern library as pngs or jpgs and then fill a layer or vector shape, rasterise, then delete everything outside my selection. Bit of a faff!

Not having the option to generate repeats and use them as a fill for raster graphics is a big gap in Affinity that will drive me back to Adobe. Annoyingly as I'd prefer to give my money to Serif!
