edges of a pattern tile before applying the pattern. However, you can also fix a pattern’s

seams by directly modifying the pattern fill.

Left: The pattern tile includes a visible white edge, which delimits each tile.

Right: The white edge was filled with the background color to produce a

seamless pattern.

To achieve seamless tiling, Corel Painter gives documents defined as pattern tiles two

special characteristics: wrap-around colors and wrap-around seams.

• The wrap-around colors feature lets you to drag a brushstroke off one edge of an

image, while simultaneously applying the stroke to the other side of the image.

This allows you to quickly modify the edges of an individual pattern tile.

• The wrap-around seams feature lets you shift the edges of pattern tiles to the center

of the image, where their tonal differences are more apparent and easier to correct.

This allows you to modify a pattern after applying it as a fill.

Left: The pattern tile before the edges were modified. Right: The same pattern

tile after the edges were painted by using the Straight Cloner brush and the

wrap-around colors feature.

To ensure a seamless pattern, you can also apply an effect, such as the Glass Distortion

effect, the Super Soften effect (with the Wrap Around check box enabled), and most

of the Tonal Control effects. Some effects, such as Apply Surface Texture, can result

in a noticeable seam. For information, see “Applying Glass Distortion” on page 583.
