Looks like you are making big images. I'm making teeny ones.
The example I used above was larger. I was testing alternating
colors in fields after reading about the backgroundPattern limits
being removed. The project I was testing that tiling handler on was
for a video timeline and uses a small image for tick marks. I need a
to repeat a tick marks image (the vertical lines appearing above a
timeline) across a timeline of a width determined at runtime. The
handler I posted worked well for that but it seems backgroundPattern
will do the job nicely and is faster.
