    I just selected all, outlined patterns and deleted your pattern.
    then i selected all, set a carve region, grouped, selected group in the carve list and made a pattern.

    That would be the PE and not the Import Image box for you. Maybe there is a difference.

    I would not have thought you could not even do what you did. Outlining someone Else's carve region and making a pattern. I would have expected the "owned by another user" message.

    I tried it and it does seem to work. Hmm...
