Tessellation #202

Closed feather50 closed 3 years ago

feather50 commented 3 years ago

Hi,

With JSPaint, how do I select a drawn shape so that I can tessellate it?

1j01 commented 3 years ago

JS Paint doesn't have specific support for tesselation at the moment, and it's not a feature of MS Paint. You can use the Free-Form Select tool, and copy and paste, but it will be a very manual process. And it will be inexact, unless you use the arrow keys for finely positioning a selection. It helps to occasionally reselect and copy a larger amount of copies so you don't have to position things as many times, like so:

From Help > Help Topics > Working with Part of the Picture > Select part of a picture:

To select part of a picture

In the toolbox, click the rectangular selection tool to select a rectangular area, and then drag the pointer diagonally across the area.

Or, click the free form selection tool to select a free-form area, and then drag the pointer around the area.

Note
  • You can remove the selection box by clicking outside the box.
