Use the Chip Up Tool to pitch out color positions for any vector art with the click of a button. It’s fantastic when used in conjunction with Fashion Utility for garments, but also for any graphic artwork such as logos or placed prints;
Create knit patterns including Fair Isles, intarsia, or custom stitch layouts. Designers can simulate knit structures instantly and recolor them within Illustrator, bridging the gap between fabric design software and production-ready visuals.
Efficiently develop woven patterns from plaids to complex dobby designs. This plug-in integrates 2D design software functionality directly into Illustrator, enabling fast iterations and creative freedom.
Easily create repeat patterns in Illustrator or Photoshop using straight, drop, shift, and mirror layouts with vector or raster art. Live preview lets you see your design as you work, and you can seamlessly switch between Repeat functions and Adobe tools for professional results.
Includes Geo for generating intricate snowflake and geometric motifs, which can be tiled effortlessly. Now, with enhanced repeat options in Illustrator, designers can apply mirror repeats with drops and shifts for greater variation and creative control.
Color Utilities keep colors, patterns, and seasonal palette data organized for design teams. Supporting standard Adobe formats, these color palettes can easily be shared with vendors or brand owners. When a color or palette changes, designers receive updates automatically, in real time, in Adobe Illustrator.
Includes Color Range which helps you match colors to the printed result. From within Adobe Illustrator, users can adjust colors on the fly to accurately match the printer–essential for clothing print design software and apparel design software teams.
Create raster-based repeats in straight, drop, or shift layouts. Reduce colors for screen printing and clean up stray pixels fast with smart cleanup tools. Work in layers, import motifs—even in indexed mode. Auto-generate pitch sheets, swatches, and screen separations. Plus, autosave protects your work from crashes by recovering your design from the last save point—so you lose less, even when the unexpected happens.
Photoshop now supports Artificial Intelligence to create colorways from simple text prompts. Type your idea, click Generate, and receive three AI-created colorways of your current design. Select which colorways to add to your project—or generate more until you find the perfect fit. This feature helps designers generate colorways to specific themes or ideas quickly, and reduce time spent searching for inspiration. AI blending rules ensure harmonious palettes, color quantity restrictions can be applied, and thumbnail previews make selection easy.
