In this movie, we'll assemble our various…design elements into a seamless pattern brush.…The first step is to save each element as a pattern tile, so, armed…with my black arrow tool, I'll go ahead and marquee these two objects right here.…So, we've got the green loop as well as this transparent rectangle.…That serves as the boundaries of the tile.…Then I'll go up to the objects menu,…choose pattern and choose make, or if you loaded…d keys you can press control m, or command m on a Mac.…And I mention that because I'm going to…use that keyboard shortcut in the future steps.…
So for now I'll choose the command.…Click on a name option right there and…change it to loops begin in parenthesis like so.…Everything else should be set correctly by default.…So your width should be 20 points.…And your height should be 32 points.…If so, go ahead and press the enter key to accept your name.…And then press the Escape key in order to…create that new tile up here in this swatches panel.…Now, I'll marquee, this end tile here.…
