Thank you for visiting this class! Adobe has de-commisioned the Adobe Textile Designer Plugin. You will not be able to download it for free, as stated earlier (by joining our beta program).
This class, Troubleshooting Adobe Textile Design Problems will cover all aspects of Adobe Textile Designer Extensions and Plug-Ins. I have learned many topics from the Adobe Textile Designer Forums, where users attempt to resolve issues. I have also encountered issues that I will address on screen in order to clarify roadblocks or pitfalls. Installation issues and export issues are the main areas I will address. There are solutions for issues such as the technical button being grayed out and the " oops message, the expired message, and many more. I also address Export To Grid for repeating tiles, how to export as an tiff and how to add watermarks.
Basic knowledge of Photoshop is a plus, but the Plug-In will be explained from installation to export. Although you may have used ATD before, this course will help you to master it. This course focuses on how to troubleshoot, resolve, and prevent problems specific to your particular setup.
I will demonstrate how to create a simple pattern, from start to finish, and we will also discuss exporting it. You will be able to use the pattern in a variety of projects or as a collection if you follow the steps.
