Drag from: a folder, the desktop, the Bitmap Gallery, and (wait for it . . .) drop.
Or, select the photo with the Fill Tool and change the Fill Tiling setting to Repeating Tile. Then: Copy the image to the clipboard, Select the bitmap you want to replace and Edit > Paste > Paste Attributes
That work?

What Gary says but for me the most logical is the Bitmap Gallery > Right-click Source image > Apply as Fill.
Also, people forget Apply as Transparency leads to some interesting effects.

Oh I love it. Thanks. Acorn method was nice. Gary I always did the fill option but the drag and drop is cool too.
I just learned something new.What Gary says but for me the most logical is the Bitmap Gallery > Right-click Source image > Apply as Fill.

In the paste option there is ton of paste as..... You would think they would have added this too!!
behzad, it isn't quite the same as a Paste; it is a tad more complex.
What you would be trying to emulate is a Copy of the Source, a Clone of the Target and a Paste replacing selection followed by a Combine Shapes > Intersect Shapes.
This also handles rotated images; none of the ones mentioned earlier can manage that as a set of canonical steps.

I now declare you Acorn as the head chief of Xara development. All praise to Acorn
Michael I did use that method before, but it seems tedious. I like the drag and drop idea.
