Apply a pattern on a shape

Many tuts require to use SuperBlade Pro.
It is a very good program, but it is also quite expensive.
Here we will show you how to use the effects provided with PSP to map a pattern on a shape.
Of course, it is not as professionnal as SuperBlade Pro, but it will allow you to do the tut anyway :)
Open the shape you want to use

Go to "Effects" -> "Texture Effects" -> "Sculptuze".

Here is the result of the settings I applied :

That's all :)
As always, have fun and experiment different settings ! Except for the size, it works like the "inner bevel" effect.

You can increase the choice of patterns beyond those offered by PSP by adding new paths in the "patterns" section of the "File Locations" preferences.
