Xzenor Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hey, has anyone figured out how to paste something existing in there? I only managed to create a pattern from scratch but I'd like to use assets that I already have but I can't. I can't even type text into it because it's on a different layer. Can't use the pen tool because it's on a different layer. Nothing, just the brush. Sure, I can make a pattern layer from a selection but that's about it. Did anyone find some smart ways to work with that? I'm having a huge fight getting a text in an existing brush with a box around it. Clipping doesn't do anything Quote Windows 10 Pro Intel Core i7-4770 3.40Ghz 16 GB RAM Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 Samsung EVO 850 SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S. Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Hello Xzenor, you can only use bitmaps/raster on the pattern-layer, as documented in the help. Text, Shapes and the pen-tool are vector-graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
