  2. Access the Tiling and Cutting Tool: Navigate to the tiling and cutting tool within your design panel on the left side.

  3. Add the Shape: Within the tiling and cutting tool, locate the "Add Shape" option. Use the line tool to draw the outline of the area you wish to tile.

  4. Apply the Outline: Once you've accurately drawn the outline, click the "Apply" button to confirm your selection.

  5. Give It a Extrude Property: Select the newly created tiling outline and assign it the "Extrude" property in the design panel option.

  6. Assign it a Thickness: Under Depth field, type in the desired panel thickness.

  7. Front Shift: Under Front Shift, specify 0.

  8. Material Selection: Clone the material applied on the shape and in the Material Editor, assign it an Emissivity ranging from 10-30. Select Clone and Apply.

  9. Finalize and Apply: Select the Back to Designing arrow at the top right. You will return to your design with the backlight added.
