Frequently asked questions

Where is Stipple in the menu?

Add Object → Lines & Patterns → Stipple

What can I adjust?

Adjust the controls above in the right sidebar after placing Stipple on the bed.

Is this non-destructive?

Objects live on layers as elements. You can edit parameters anytime; delete the element to remove it.

Does Stipple work with multi-pen plotting?

Yes. Use Pen Palette on a layer to split linework by color, or set per-path ink on modifiers like Offset.
