Kaleidoscope Fill
The Kaleidoscope Fill effect allows you to create wild, psychedelic patterns and
semi-random animations using Palette ramps. It works in conjunction with GIF
Animator when creating animations and lets you generate single image layers that
can be applied to both selection areas and objects.
To create a Kaleidoscope Fill:
1. Select Effect: Creative -
Kaleidoscope .
2. Click Edit to customize the Palette
ramp or change to an entirely new
one. Select the
Palette ramp you
wish to use or modify the existing
one, then click
OK .
Alternatively, to edit the existing
ramp from within the
Artist Texture
dialog box, adjust the Hue shift ,
Ring , and Repeat options.
3. Select a style from the Pattern samples or create a new set of 6 by selecting a
base image from the Pattern templates . The Pattern templates define the
basic ‘warp’ that is applied to the Palette ramp.
4. Click OK .
To create an animation:
1. In the Fills and Textures: Artist
Texture dialog box, click Advanced
to continue.
2. Drag a sample from the Pattern
samples box to the storyboard to
add it to the animation sequence.
The entries in the storyboard will
morph from one into the next.
3. Click Save to save as an animated
GIF file. After saving, the Effect
dialog box remains open so you can
continue modifying the effects
settings (see
“Saving GIF animation
options” ).
4. Click OK .
