  • One of Adobe Illustrator's most powerful tools is the ability to create repeating patterns. But beyond just making them, it's actually really easy to resize, move or transform the repeating patterns inside an object in Illustrator.
    A great trick for fashion and textile designers, this comes in handy when you need to position the pattern on a fashion flat sketch or garment drawing.

    04:19 How to change the size / scale of a repeating pattern swatch inside your fashion sketch
    04:50 How to debug when your pattern is not scaling
    06:18 How to move the position of your repeating pattern inside your illustration
    07:10 Keyboard shortcuts (the Tilde key) to scale or move patterns without scaling / moving the object they fill

    That dang Tilde key! I've been cursing Illustrator for days with having to go to the Transform->Move/Scale menus every time. Thanks for that tip!

    Hi, thank you for the very useful tips :) Actually the last part I can't do. My Keyboard is a brazilian model (just as I am also). It does have a tilde key but it is not working. I also tried the strange neighborhood of keys, but none of them worked. So what is the command associated with this, I will seek on the shortcut list...

    Hi Heidi,
    I love your tutorials and your podcast,
    I'm using Adobe Illustrator CC 2020 and when I Object- Clipping Mask, the mask and the print disappear, and I cant select either with the selection tools, but when i hover over with the selection tool, the shapes are outlined. What do I do?
