Hello,

How can I add texture to the fill of a shape?

1. Draw your shape and load your texture as a layer:

 

2. Drag the texture layer to the shape layer like in screenshot #2

 

3. Move the texture to cover the shape. Et voilà!

You can also use a saved image file for this: select the shape with the Fill Tool. On the Context toolbar, select Context: Fill & Type: Bitmap. A window will open which will allow you to choose an image file to use as a texture fill. Supported file types are jpg, tiff, png, gif, & bmp. The "Extend" Context Toolbar options (Wrap, Mirror, Repeat, & None) produce different mapping effects, & the image can be stretched or rotated like with any gradient fill.

Right, it works better with seamless textures.

How does one accomplish this on an iPad and v2? I simply can't seem to get this to work. Anyone?

Just a hint, @Affinity NueBe: You're more likely to get good iPad answers if you ask a question in the iPad section of the forum. You can point to this discussion as some background if you want, but it's best to keep iPad and desktop discussions in their proper spots, in general.

Thanks Walt. My bad for not paying attention to which forum this was in!
