Attach Pattern File to Object

The Attach Pattern File to Object lets the user to anchor one or more Pattern Files to the current position of an object, refreshing the pattern position whenever the object is moved.

In order to attach any pattern file, they must be created and set as a valid source first. In order to do so, the user can import them via the Source menu, in Import Pattern File option.

When these requisites are fulfilled we can select the object which we want to attach Pattern Files, and clicking on the Source → Pattern File → Attach Pattern File to Object will take us to the Pattern File Attach Panel. Here by clicking on the desired Pattern Files on the Geometry Panel or Tree and clicking the Add button will successfully attach the pattern file to our object.
