Using photos as fills
You can also use any bitmap as a fill style for any drawn shape. Simply drag the file over the shape
(which can be from your file system, or from the Bitmap or Fill galleries), and hold the "Shift" key down
before you drop. This will replace the existing color fill with a bitmap, fitted to the object. Again you can
use the Fill Tool
to adjust the size, angle and position.
Initial Photo size
When you import a large photo it's reduced in size to HD (1920x1080) resolution, if it's larger than that
(in print and animation documents you are prompted about this first). And it's sized to be a convenient
500 pixels wide on the page.
To reduce the size, just drag a corner handle using the Selector Tool, or enter a new width in the Selector
Tool InfoBar width field.
If you replace a photo using drag and drop, then the photo is sized to exactly fit the container, and this
means its size and resolution will depend on the size of the container.
