Note that a new Custom Color will only be saved and available in the current project.
Changing Texture

Instead of using a solid color, you can also fill shapes with textures, which are typically raster files, such as
.bmp, .jpg, .png, imported into MTC. When you access the
Change Texture function, the window which
opens will depend on whether or not you already have a texture available from another shape in your
project. If you do not, then when you go to
Change Texture , the Open Image for Texturizing window will
open and you can browse your computer to open a texture file, scan one into MTC, or paste one from
Windows Clipboard:

After importing this first texture, or if there was already a texture open in your current project, then the
Choose Texture window opens. In this window, you have options to:

Tile the Texture (fill a shape with a modified version of the texture)

Vertically or horizontally flip the texture

Offset or move the texture within the shape

Adjust the color and brightness of the texture
