Patterns 683
Creating patterns on layers
You can use the same techniques to create patterns on layers as you do to create them
on the canvas. However, a pattern’s wrap-around features do not apply to layers. This
is because the canvas has edges, but layers do not — they are unlimited in size. If you
shift a pattern on a layer, the pattern does not wrap around.
To create a pattern from scratch
1 Choose File New.
2 Type values in the Width and Height boxes.
If you want to create a pattern, you should set a small canvas size, such as 400
pixels by 300 pixels at 300 ppi.
3 Choose Window Media Control Panels Patterns.
4 In the Patterns panel, click the Pattern options button , and choose Define
Pattern.
5 Apply brushstrokes to the canvas.
If you apply a brushstroke to the edge of the canvas, wrap-around colors are
enabled so that you can drag a brushstroke off one edge of an image, while
simultaneously applying the brushstroke to the other side of the image.
6 Click the Pattern options button , and choose Add Image to Library.
7 In the Save Image dialog box, type a name for the pattern.
You can also create a pattern by choosing Edit Fill, modifying the pattern,
and then choosing Add Image to Library.
To create a pattern from an image
1 Open the image file you want to use in creating a pattern.
2 Choose Window Media Control Panels Patterns.
3 In the Pattern panel, click the Pattern options button , and choose Define
Pattern.
4 Click the Pattern options button , and choose Add Image to Library.
5 In the Save Image dialog box, type a name for the pattern.
