You can create straight horizontal and vertical stripe patterns from almost
any image by using symmetries with a rectangle control path: Simple shift
,
Glide reflection
,
Mirror
,
Half-turn
,
Double glide
,
Parallel mirrors & glide
,
and Double mirror
:
To create vertical stripes, simply drag the top or bottom side of the
control path toward the opposite side to narrow the control path into a
horizontal strip a few pixels wide. Or, to make horizontal stripes, drag the
left or right side of the control path toward the opposite side to narrow
the control path into a vertical strip a few pixels wide.
Moving the source image relative to the control path is often easier than
moving a narrow strip of the control path relative to the image (which is
possible, too, if you increase the magnification in the Source image
window enough by repeatedly clicking the Zoom In button
in the Source Image window).
