You can fill a path object with a bitmap graphic, known as a pattern fill. Fireworks ships with more than a dozen pattern fills, including Berber, Leaves, and Wood.

This is a picture of the feature being described.

To apply a pattern fill to a selected object:

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Select Pattern from the Fill Options pop-up menu in the Property inspector.
    • Click the Fill Color box in the Tools panel, click Fill Options, and select Pattern from the Fill Options pop-up menu.
  2. Select a pattern from the Pattern Name pop-up menu.

    The pattern fill appears in the selected object and becomes the active fill color.
