Pattern Fill

Pattern Fill areas use small stitches in repeating patterns that cover an area completely using typical density values. The density and color can also be changed with single gradient density and multigradient density.

The Fill Area and Line properties for Pattern Fill has sections for setting all the properties on a pattern fill area. It appears when you click a pattern fill area so that the points defining its shape are shown, and then right-click. It also appears when you click the Fill Area and Line button in the Options section on one of the Create tabs.

Use the Pattern Fill properties dialog box to change the pattern, density and stitch angle used for fill areas.

Alternatively, adjust the angle of the fill pattern with the handle on the Origin marker Origin_Marker_with_handle01947.jpg.
