Creating custom tiles

Corel Painter transforms images into tiles based on a preset pattern, like bricks or hexagons, or from a paper pattern, clone source, or channel. If you use a preset pattern, the tiles are uniform in size and cover the entire image evenly.

The color of each tile is determined by applying the average color of the image pixels it covers.

Before (left) and after (right) applying tiles generated from a preset pattern

When you generate tiles from either a paper pattern, clone source, or channel, tiles are based on light and dark concentrations in the selected source. In this case, the shape of the tiles is varied and may not cover an image evenly.

Tiles generated from a paper pattern

The Custom Tile effect functions differently from the Make Mosaic and Make Tessellation effects. For more information, see Creating a mosaic.
