Changing the resolution lets you resize the fractal used in a Fractal Cloud fill or Fractal Plasma fill.

Drag the outer fill handles. Shift-dragging preserve the aspect ratio of the fractal. (See Moving fractal fill handles.) Alternatively, if you want to set the resolution to a precise value:

1. Select the fractal filled object (see Selecting objects).

2. Choose the Fill Tool.

3. Click away from the fill handles to ensure none is selected.

4. Enter a value in DPI into the Resolution field on the Fill Tool Infobar.

5. Press RETURN.
