New to Inkscape and just created my first pattern. However, once the pattern is created, is it possible to convert the pattern to a series of objects?

At the moment the 'parent' object controls the properties for all the 'child' patterns. This is great, but now I want to change the properties (i.e. color) of each of the 'child' patterns. Is this possible?

Really appreciate any pointers.

Thanx.

Hi.

Stating the obvious, patterns are made for fill attributes of objects, in a repeated manner.
If you want several objects with different colours, you may try the make tiled clones option instead.

But if it's all for just a fill, then clone the parent tile, and convert the clone to pattern.
Then the fill will respond to editing the parent tile.
The parent object can also be a group of objects, however there is a rendering issue if clipping is involved in the parent tile.
