Create limitless tiled textures and patterns as backgrounds, design elements, texture maps, or web-page backgrounds. Use any image and choose from 17 natural symmetries, with continuous previewing and edge blending. Then save tiles or apply them to an image.Simply select a symmetry and create geometrically complex patterns. The result is a virtual kaleidoscope of colors and patterns. Terrazzo is ideal for creating endlessly mesmerizing background textures and elements. The textures and patterns are remarkably beautiful and easy to use in a variety of applications, including background textures for graphic design, web sites, and multimedia. Includes texture maps or bump maps for three-dimensional rendering and animation or bold, symmetrical graphic effects, and textile patterns and designs.Select a symmetry in Terrazzo, slide it around on the selected source image, and Terrazzo produces tiles of astounding beauty. The interface is intelligent and easy to use. See simultaneously the source image with the symmetry, the tiling pattern being created, the way the symmetry itself tiles, and the individual tile Terrazzo has created.Adjustable Parameters inside of Terrazzo:• user interface displays the source image, the active symmetry, the resulting tile, and the pattern generated by the repeated tile;• continuous preview interactively create tiles and fine tunes them to get the exact effect in real time;• symmetry palette generate an endless variety of dramatically different patterns choosing from 17 different symmetries;• feather option blurs any visible boundaries between tiles to create seamless patterns;• opacity option varies the opacity of a pattern from 0 to 100% to produce unusual textures and effects;• mode options precisely controls the look of patterns and textures by adjusting the options for normal, darken, lighten, hue, saturation, color, luminosity, multiply, and screen;• save tile command saves favorite tiles as PICT files, alter or resize the tiles and use with other PICT-savvy applications;• source menu creates patterns from elements in the display digital image or uses Terrazzo's source menu to open any PICT file as the source image and applies the resulting pattern to the destination image;• apply mode allows control over the created pattern (modify the tiled pattern with multiply, screen effects, and lightness to darkness); and• save tile enables the user to name and save any tile created for future use in texture mapping in three-dimensional or any other application, saved tiles can easily be altered and adjusted for the perfect look in other graphics applications.Manufacturer: Xaos Inc.
