3. Basics of PhotoLine / 3.4 The Color Editor

### 3.4.3 The Pattern Subdialog

The subdialog for editing pattern colors can be used to modify the selected pattern or vector pattern:

Here you can assign a foreground color to the (vector) pattern. This way you can quickly give hatchings a different color, for example.

In addition, the (vector) pattern can be transformed. The new pattern size is specified either in percent or in a direct unit of measurement such as pixels. Besides it is possible to rotate the pattern with Rotation and to skew it with Shearing. Both values are degrees.

Tip: In the Layer Attributes there is the setting "Align Pattern" (see chapter 4.11). If this setting is activated, the pattern is always aligned to the origin of its layer and transformed accordingly.
