Tiles

[chathaf webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

When I try to tile an object, I copy the image as instructed, but when I try to paste in, I consistently get the message "could not complete your request because a tile may not contain an image object." I'm not sure where to go with this, any ideas?

You can¹t use a bitmapped object in the construction of a Tiled fill. Only
vector graphics are eligible. To get the photo into the tile, you have to
trace it manually, or use the Trace tool.
