Patterns

Patterns consist of a tile repeated horizontally, vertically or at an angle. Patterns can be used to stylize the Fill of any object, even text.

Use the Pattern panel to customize any type of pattern or to apply a pre-made pattern from the Pattern palette. Alternatively, you can use the Fill pane or the Effects pane from the Appearance panel.

Additionally, you can adjust the position and scale of your pattern using the Pattern tool.
