Symbols within an area

[Dan Taylor]

Hi,

I want to show an area of woodland on my map.  Instead of filling the
areas, however, I'd like to fill it with small tree symbols.  These
need to be spread round the area in a random-looking way.  The style
I'm looking to create is similar to that used by UK OS maps.

Does anyone know how I can do this?

I asked this question a week ago and it was ignored.  I guess it's not
possible?  A reply telling me it can't be done would be just as
helpful as the solution right now!

Dan
