Adding Images

Images can be imported as separate objects or directly inside a certain object.

To import an image as a separate object, drag and drop it on the canvas or choose File > Place [⌥ - ⌘ - I] from the menu bar. The newly added image will be added on your canvas inside a shape that fits its dimensions. The shape can then be edited or stylized like any other shape.

To import an image inside a plain object, go to the Fill pane from the Effects panel and select Image from that drop-down menu. The image will scale to fit the selected object. To replace an image use the Change Image command from the same pane.

Same settings can be found inside the Effects pane from the Appearance panel whenever you select a Fill.
