Does anyone know how to do a zebra pattern in HotFix Era? I have tried several times, but with only marginal results.
Thanks,

I´ve digitized a few zebra / jaguar patterns with some success. Basically, think of painting a wall, where you´ll use the Area tool for the main wall, and the Path tool is your small brush for the zebra details.
What you don´t want to do is encompass the entire big area with the Area tool, because then you´ll be editing individual stones into a different color for the zebra pattern. Sooner or later, you´re asking for trouble because you´ll lose all that individual editing the moment you resize or change something else, because you´d have a lot of "manual" in the middle of "area" (open the Object Manager tab on the right edge of the screen if you don´t know what this means).

Thank you. I was able to do like you said and was successful.
