Is there any other shape forms besides atoms like, Examples: Cubes, and Swirls? Also shaped instruments would be nice also. :smiley:

Try to open the Effect Editor and create a pattern effect using ā€œCustom Shapeā€ distribution. Itā€™s very simple!

Hi,

hereā€™s a tutorial made by an FWsim user:

And I have one addition to that video:
If you are in MS Paint, I suggest you only place individual pixels instead of drawing lines. This is because every pixel becomes a star.

Let me know if anything is unclear.

Best Regards,
Lukas

In order to get to the point at which the video starts, please try this:

  1. Click Tools ā†’ Effect Editor
  2. A window will pop up, asking you which kind of effect you want to create
  3. Select a Peony
  4. Click the ā€œStarsā€ in the sidebar

From this place, you can follow the instructions in the video.

Best Regards,
Lukas

Oh, this is unfortunately not possible yet. The current ā€œCustom Shapeā€ method allows only to create shapes in 2D.

Ah I see.

I did not make the video which I shared above. Therefore unfortunately I do not have more information beyond what is visible in the video.
