  • Transparency - Scales the transparency of the fill from 0% (opaque) to 100% (transparent)
  • Aspect Ratio - Either maintains the aspect ratio of the filled pattern (default) or stretches the aspect ratio
  • Mirror Pattern - Either maintains the original pattern (default) or mirrors the pattern
  • Scale - Scales the pattern size to be larger or smaller within the filled object
  • Pan Pattern - Provides control to move the pattern around inside the filled object
  • Rotate Pattern - Controls the angle of rotation of the pattern design
