Issue with Enlarging Masters
Hi,
I am trying to fill a large box with a concrete pattern, like concrete hatching in autocad. However, whenever I make the concrete pathway shape (from the garden accessories menu) as large as I need the pattern becomes too large and grainy. Is there anyway to make this larger concrete pathway have an even distribution of pattern. I also tried to make multiple smaller boxes of the concrete pathway but there seems to be no way to remove the lines separating them to make the look as one (combine, union, group just removes the concrete pattern). I really just need a fill style that looks like the concrete on autocad. Help! |

The shape doesn't contain a pattern in the Visio sense, it's really just a
finite number (10 or so) of geometries. You might want to check out the downloads at the bottom of this blog post: http://visualsignals.typepad.co.uk/v...ng-rand-1.html The post is mostly about line patterns, but there are some nice fill patterns as well. Hope that helps Best regards John John Goldsmith (Visio MVP) www.visualSignals.typepad.co.uk www.visualSignals.co.uk "Taylor" wrote in message ...
