| • | To apply a texture fill |
Texture fills are three-dimensional patterns. You can use existing texture fills, such as water, minerals, and clouds, or you can edit a texture to create your own texture fill. You cannot import files to use as texture fills.
When you edit a texture fill, you can modify its parameters, such as softness, density, brightness, and colors. Parameters vary for each texture. After you have edited a texture fill, you can save it for future use.
You can modify the attributes of a texture fill to change its appearance.
