Supports translation, 180° rotation, and diagonal reflection symmetries. DECORATE YOUR TILES Draw eyes, wings, and other details right on your tiles. Two alternating decoration patterns let creatures in different colors line up just like in Escher's art. Includes a pen, a stamp, and a drag-to-erase eraser. Rotate the whole artwork to any angle. MAKE IT YOURS - Customize the checkerboard colors and line color - Save color palettes and apply them with one tap - Works are saved automatically and can be reopened anytime - Friendly hints explain how tiling works EXPORT AND SHARE Export your patterns as SVG or PNG - great for wallpapers, fabric, wrapping paper, and laser cutting.
