Applying Island Fill

Island Fill uses a continuous contour pattern to fill the surface. It is the cleanest method for filling an object.

1. Select the desired objects.
2. From the Effects menu, point to Engraving and select Island Fill.

   The Island Fill tab appears in DesignCentral.

3. In DesignCentral, adjust the following parameters:

   	Selects a tool from the Tool Library. Select Edit from the bottom of the dropdown list to create a new tool or edit an existing one. (See Tool Library for more information.)
   	Online. Creates a tool path that directly follows the existing path.
   	Inset. Creates a tool path that is set inside the existing path.
   	Offset. Creates a tool path that is set outside the existing path.
   	Specifies the distance between the existing path and the tool path (only available for Inset and Offset path styles).
   	Specifies the amount of overlap between one tool path and its immediate neighbor.
   Depth Nose	When selected, prevents the tool from lifting while engraving. Such lifting could cause a spring-loaded depth nose to engrave too deeply.
   	Sharp corners. Causes the tool path to follow the object's corner.

   	Round corners. Causes the tool path to curve around the object's corner.

   Round All	For all path styles, rounds off all of the object's corners so that objects can be inlaid. For Inset and Offset, all corners will be rounded. For Online, only the inside corners will be rounded.
