Remarks

This method makes an image look like a mosaic made from tiles. Tiles can be rectangular or arc-shaped, depending upon the coordinate system used to draw the tiles. The method's many parameters control factors like the border color, tile color, pen width, tile width and height, etc.
This command does not support signed data images.
