Using some advanced maths to get the pattern to tile seamlessly.

Very interesting way of tiling this. It just shows the different paths to the same solution. I played with the file earlier (didn't save it), but I got it to tile by removing the rotation, cropping the image and then adding the rotation back at the end. This is what I love about Aviary. :)

Aye, that's the truth!

Just for reference, you can tile any tilted tile with the following formulae:

1) X, Y, where X and Y are two whole numbers representing the run and rise of your tilt. e.g. in the above image I used 3 and 1 -- every 3 flowers across will drop down 1 flower (in this image this appears to be doubled because mirroring is on). The number of tiles horizontally and vertically on the source image needs to equal X.

2) The angle which satisfies the tile is found with:
angle = atan( Y/X ) * 180 / PI

3) The scaling amount which satisfies the tile is found with:
percent = X / sqrt( X^2 + Y^2 ) * 100

I tried this with several different ratios, worked every time. :)

It would be very interesting if Peacock allowed for formulas to be used to set properties. I wonder if there will be something similar added with the new blackboxing feature that is coming soon.

Thank You so much for figuring this out.

Yea all that Trig stuff just confuses me.
