Re-rendering mosaic tiles

If you change the resolution of a document that contains a mosaic, you need to re-render the mosaic to ensure the mosaic resolution matches that of the document. This command re-creates the mosaic from the grout color and the tile object information. Re-rendering fills the image with the grout color and then re-renders the mosaic tiles at the resolution of the document. It is important to note that the re‑rendering process erases any image that is not a tile or grout.
