This is overview is only scratching the surface of how much you can control in the way Gliftex works. Most likely, you'll be entertained for hours and hours just using the one click button controls, but if you want to explore even deeper, you can do that too.

The screen shown here allows you to choose a specific form, and adjust its attributes including size, rotation, and position. I didn't count, but I'd guess there are hundreds of forms to choose from, and you can add your own user forms as DXF and WMF files--an advanced topic described in the Gliftex help.

If you look through my gallery of Gliftex Examples, you'll see several patterns with hearts in them. I was able to do this by locking in hearts as the user form, and I ended up with over two dozen varations of heart designs, all very different from each other.

Interpretations also have customizable settings for each type of interpretation.
