Beads Separation

HF summary 3

Distance between 2 neighbor bling beads.

A distance of 0 (zero) means that bead has no separation with the beads next to it.

It defines the distance between bead arrays or rows.

Beads Offset

HF summary 51

Displacement of the beads position in consecutive rows of beads.

This property is used in flat fill style (that produces vertically and horizontally aligned beads). Mostly used values are: 0%, 25%, 33%, 50%.

 

 

Beads Offset: 0%

It sets a displacement of the beads in a row (array) respect to the previous row.

Border Clipping Mode

HF summary 52

Select how the beads are placed at the object borderline.

oInside: Forces to remove the beads that are not completely inside the area.

oOutside: Allows beads that are placed crossing the object borderline.

 

 

Border Mode: Outside (Include)

 

Border Mode: Inside (Exclude)

HF summary 63

 

It specifies how to place the beads at the border.

Bead Position Tolerance

HF summary 53

Usually, if columns and rows spacing values are strictly considered, some beads won't fit correctly and they won't be placed. But sometimes the placement would look better if some beads are allowed. The Tolerance property controls how strict the program should be. A value of 0% (zero) means no tolerance at all, and larger values makes the rule more flexible, allowing some beads to be included.

 

 

Tolerance: 10%

 

Tolerance: 80%

 
HF summary 64

 
HF summary 65

 

It specifies a tolerance to adjust the beads position.

Beads Angle Mode

HF summary 5

Bling beads can be rotated an angle (from its center). Certainly, it makes sense for non-round beads only.

Some object types (path types) allow to automatically rotate the bead according to the tangent angle of the path at the place of the bead. For this case the available options are:

oPerpendicular: Beads are rotated following a variable direction perpendicular to the path, plus the specified angle value.

oTangent: Beads are rotated following a variable direction tangent to the path, plus the specified angle value.

oFixed (default option): Beads are placed at a the fixed angle specified by the angle value.

 

 

Angle Mode: Fixed

Angle Mode: Tangent

Angle Mode: Perpendicular
