Here you can define the tile regions automatically by means of the fill factor of the sample carrier.

  1. A sample carrier must have been selected in the Sample Carrier section of the Tiles tool.
  2. Manually created tile regions and positions (setup by Contour and setup by Predefined) will be deleted if you switch to the setup by Carrier. If you want to combine manual and automatic setup, first use setup by Carrier and then switch to a manual setup. Tile regions that are created automatically by setup by Carrier, are defined to a container and permanently assigned and locked by default, against manual editing. You can unlock the tile regions in the Tiles tool by selecting the desired tile region and unlocking it via the options menu in the tile regions list. You can also unlock all tile regions here if necessary.
