Or if you use pattern fill, you can draw the randomness into a small group of tiles.Īs for the corrugated metal roof, I'd have to give that a little more thought. For example some tiles slightly lighter or darker, maybe some slightly larger or smaller, maybe some are slightly tilted. With tiled clones, you can automatically add some randomness (settings in dialog) which one would normally see. You can draw your own pattern, for example a single tile, or a small group of tiles (roof tiles). I have played around with the Tiled Clones, but I also found it hard to use. But that's based on my preference and skill level. And from those, I'd probably choose pattern fill. I would probably either use pattern fill or tiled clones. But the roof tile is a little more complicated. If it was simply a stripe pattern, of course you've already found many different variations under pattern fill. It seems you have already explored all the options available, and now it's just a matter of choosing which one would work best. Another variant: depiction of a corrugated roof. I just want to fill the roof rectangle with a pattern depicting clay roof tiles, and where I can subsequently alter the roof dimensions by dragging or otherwise editing, and the 'fill pattern' automatically adjusts to the new size. (I see 'Tiling' can probably do this but it looks quite complicated process just to do a simple 'Fill with this pattern')ĭoes anyone know an easy way to do this ?Ī more complex example is to depict a 'roof covered with clay roof tiles of user-defined size/colour/transparency'. I explored the Pattern & Swatch in the ' Fill & Stroke' dialog, Tiling, and Filters, but none seemed to easily offer this. Some sort of 'Fill Pattern' for objects seems like the sort of function I need, where I can 'Pick' from a selection of common predefined 'patterns, eg. I have 2 situations where I would like to fill a shape with a repetitive pattern.Ī simple example is a rectangle I want to fill with a pattern of lines drawn with a specified thickness, interval and angle - relative to an edge.
