Make a dedicated Surface Pattern Window or Layout mode
A dedicated pattern window for surface design.
Easy to choose between repeat styles.
Adding and deleting elements.
Side by side preview of the pattern.
Art board templates for popular sizes.
Pick and change the colors to an element that can update them all at once.
Same for size and other transformations.
Make this window Pantone extension friendly. We need to use Pantone colors.
Option to choose from color themes. Like holiday colors, black and white for example. Suggest popular colors others are using.
Save swatches and gradients.
Ai suggestions for best placement of elements.
Image trace.
Fabric mock-up preview.
Simple move tool option to mirror elements on the edges.
Fix: Ensure there are no white edges. We want the color and graphics to cover completely.
