Does anyone know how to make a custom "Pattern Swatch" in Illustrator?

I've done this a couple times and I believe all you do is draw out your pattern in illus, being completely vector then use the direct select to select it and define it as a pattern swatch... I believe....

You can import colors from another Illustrator file if you want. I forget how to do it, but it's quite simple. I think it's Windows-->Swatches-->Import swatches.

If you wanted to change how the swatches are when you open the program, open the RGB or CMYK startup file in the application folder and alter that. I would also back up the original, just in case.

It's interesting when I try to google a topic and find my own suggestion from 13 years ago. Too bad the startup file in another place these days.
