If desired, you can also change the Transparency of the fill. You can enter any
value between 0% (no transparency) and 100% (full transparency). For example,
if you set the Transparency value to 25, the filling will have 25% transparency.
Pattern
Fills the object using a pattern. To specify the pattern, select the type of pattern
from the Patterns list. Then, select the desired colors for foreground and background.
If desired, you can also change the Transparency of the fill. Values between
0% (no transparency) and 100% (full transparency) are permitted.
Picture
Fills the object using a picture file. To select the picture file to be used, click the
Open button to bring up a file selection dialog. Tip: The most recently used
picture files are presented in the Images list and can be selected with a single
mouse click.
Additional options:
Rotate with object: If you activate this option, the image will be rotated as
well whenever you rotate the object to be filled.
Mirror: Allows you to mirror the picture horizontally or vertically.
Transparency: If desired, you can also change the transparency of the fill.
Values between 0% (no transparency) and 100% (full transparency) are permitted.
Tile as texture: If this option is enabled, multiple copies of the picture are
arranged like tiles to fill the object.
The options in the Tile options section then allow you to change the size and
position of the tiles: X scale and Y scale change the size (in percent), while X
offset and Y offset change the position. The Alignment option can be used to
determine to which edge of the object the tiles should be aligned.
If the Tile as texture option is not enabled, only Offsets (relative to the edges
of the object) can be set for the image.
Save: You can use this button to export the currently selected picture, that is, to
save a copy of it on your hard disk.
