Drawing Rosette Patterns

[faeb]

Hi Faye,

Like all things Xtreme there are normally numerous ways of creating the same end result. So here's another alternative to Steve's method.

Thank everyone so much for all the quick replies and instructions. I have never been on a list where I got such quick responds. It is awesome.
I am learning a lot today and you guys are helping me greatly.

Now I want to know how to take a circle and divide it like cutting a pie
into 12 equal parts then drawing more divisions in this part and multiplying
it to make parts to put the 'pie' back together to make a rosette.
How do I cut a circle to use just a part of it? I am really feeling like a
dummy today but am determine to conquer this program no matter what.

Faye,
To start with draw your elipse, then draw a straight line through it making sure it is centered over the elipse. Then clone the line and rotate the clone 30 degrees. Clone the clone and rotate 30 degrees and so on until you've created the lines for twelve slices.

Group all the lines, but not the elipse, convert the lines into a shape, then selecting the lines and the elipse, do a "ctrl, 2" to slice the elipse. After slicing it you will need to break shapes to separate them.
