Specifying Tile Color
There are several ways to change tile color. You can adjust the value, change the hue,
or randomize variability. You can adjust the color for individual tiles or for larger areas
across the mosaic.
The tile color is determined by the main color selected on the Colors palette. You
might want to add some color variability to build visual interest. When working in a
clone document, you can color the tiles based on the clone source.
