Hi Jacque, It seems that if you fill the "Markerfill" with your image,this image is transformed into a pattern, that is, repeated in every direction across the graphic and visible only in the markers (what I deduce because they don't look identical to each other, but two contiguous or overlapping markers give a continuous pattern). No problem if you use a plain color instead of your image. An the "inner glow" gives a decent result. What's boring is to set the points for a 8 x 8 circle... I offer it to you ;-) 2,0,3,0,4,0,5,0,6,1,7,2,7,3,7,4,7,5,6,6,5,7,4,7,3,7,2,7,1,6,0,5,0,4,0,3,0,2,1,1,2,0 - LC is able to read this continuous list if you past it into the marker points field of the inspector. Another possibility is to drop the graphic and use only it's list of points, and to clone your image and set the loc of each clone to the successive points... but it will give more headache if you want to change the scale. Good luck anyway
