Katie20 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Hello, ‘I’ve been using the affinity iPad app for about a week now so I’m still fairly new but am used to the majority of its features and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made, being a fashion student we are constantly using adobe software and I’ve found this software gives me all I could need as a student like the option to make my own brushes for technical flats, but I had one question about how you can make patterns and then fill a shape in with said pattern I think in Adobe it’s called a swatch although I could be wrong, I hope I’ve explained this well enough it’s hard to word but if this was a feature this would be super helpful to me and I’m sure lots of other fashion students.

Aammppaa Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Hi Katie20, and welcome to the forum. Affinity doesn't yet have a vector pattern / vector fill tool. So you either have to make your nest your pattern inside the shape you want to fill - which is usually a bit cumbersome. Or you can draw something, export it as a bitmap, and then use the Bitmap Fill in the Fill Tool to create a repeating pattern. You might find these a useful starting point… https://affinityspotlight.com/article/create-repeat-patterns-with-a-live-pattern-preview-in-affinity-designer-for-ipad/ Quote Win10 Home x64 | AMD Ryzen 7 2700X @ 3.7GHz | 48 GB RAM | 1TB SSD | nVidia GTX 1660 | Wacom Intuos Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
