imagesettle() is an inbuilt function in PHP that is used to set the tile image for filling. It sets the image to be used by all-region filling functions like imagefill() and imagefilledpolygon() when filling with a special color IMG_COLOR_TILED.
We can say that a tile is an image that is used to fill an area with a repeated pattern. We can use any GD image as a tile.
Syntax
bool imagesettile($image, $tile)
Parameters
imagesettile() takes two parameters: $image and $tile.
$image − Holds a GD image.
$tile − The $tile parameter is used to set the image resource as a tile.
Return Values
imagesettile() returns True on success and False on failure.

<?php
// Load the PNG image by using imagecreatefrompng() function.
$image = imagecreatefrompng('C:\xampp\htdocs\Images\img27.png');
// Create an image of 700x300 size
$img = imagecreatetruecolor(700, 300);
// Set the image tile
imagesettile($img, $image);
// Make the image repeat and IMG_COLOR_TILED is used
imagefilledrectangle($img, 0, 0, 300, 199, IMG_COLOR_TILED);
// Output an image to the browser
