Changing the resolution of a bitmap fill
Changing the resolution lets you resize the bitmap used in a bitmap fill.
To change the resolution of a bitmap fill
Drag the outer fill handles. Shift-dragging preserve the aspect ratio of the bitmap. (See Moving bitmap fill handles.) Alternatively, if you want to set the resolution to a precise value you can use the Fill Tool Infobar:
1. Select the bitmap 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 Infobar.
5. Press RETURN.
Tips
If there is a selected fill handle, Resolution shows the name of the handle.
At low resolutions (below 70 dpi) the individual pixels of the bitmap may be noticeable.
