[Qgis-user] Images as style

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi,

 Do you want tiled patterns or a single image on the Centroid?

 Yes - it is possible by using an SVG file. New Symbology --> SVG fill 
 (for tiled patterns) or centroid fill.

 This way you can use any vector or raster graphic you want. Be sure to 
 properly import your jpg file into the SVG (embed rather than link your 
 file). You can do this in Inkscape or Illustrator.

 Depending of the nature of your fill it would be useful to recreate the 
 patterns as proper vector elements such that it scales nicely.

 Hope this helps?

 Andreas
